A legacy UNIX SMS could be an A400, A500, rp2430 or rp2470 bundle, depending on when it was
ordered

In order for a legacy SMS to be upgraded to support Integrity or PA8800, it must be running HP-UX
11.0 or later, as sx1000 scan tools are not supported on HP-UX 10.20.

rx2600 SMS bundles ordered and installed prior to October 2004 will require a software upgrade in
order to support an sx1000-based Superdome. As of October 2004, all rx2600 SMS bundles support
PA8800 and Integrity Superdomes without this upgrade.

There are two alternatives for Integrity Superdome: a Windows ProLiant SMS/Console or a UNIX rx2600
SMS/Console.
The UNIX rx2600 SMS bundle is comprised of:
HP rx2600 1.0G 1.5MB CPU server Solution
Factory rack kit for rx2600
1GB DDR memory
36GB 15K HotPlug Ultra320 HDD
HP-UX 11iv2 Foundation OE
1 x HP Tape Array 5300 with DVD-ROM and DAT 40
HP ProCurve Switch 2124
CAT 5e Cables
By default, the rx2600 SMS does not come with a display monitor or keyboard unless explicitly ordered
to enable console access (the TFT5600 rackmounted display/mouse/keyboard is the recommended
solution). See the ordering guide for details on the additional components that are required in order to
use the rx2600 SMS as a console.
The Windows ProLiant SMS:
