| HP Tru64 UNIX brings you active
workload management tools that allow dynamic allocation and
balancing of system resources such as CPU -- without compromising
individual application performance. Whether you're consolidating
servers for cost efficiency or managing workloads to effectively
support multiple applications, no other operating system offers
more flexibility, security or ease of management than Tru64
UNIX on hp AlphaServer systems. |
|
|
|
| In high
performance technical computing situations, where workloads
must be distributed in massively parallel environments and scaling
across a cluster is necessary, HP partners with Platform Computing
to complement Tru64 UNIX built-in workload management capabilities.
Platform's LSF (Load
Sharing Facility) is a distributed load sharing and batch queuing
software bundled with HP AlphaServer SC systems. |

|
Advanced partitioning capabilities allow an AlphaServer
GS system to be segmented into several smaller servers and
recombined back into a single system when needed. This capability
is ideal whenever multiple instances of an operating system are
needed, such as for testing new releases, performing upgrades
or segregating applications. System partitioning is especially
useful for server
consolidation.

|
|
| The ability to add and remove components while
the system is running enables to add capacity to the system, remove
components for upgrades, alter system configurations, and replace
components without compromising availability. Tru64 UNIX V5.1A
supports on-line insertion and removal of CPUs, with support for
additional components to follow in subsequent versions of the operating
system. In addition, Tru64 UNIX V5.1A is the first operating system
on the UNIX market to support mixed-speed CPUs in the same server
so that your investment is protected and the choice of pace at
which you are ready to upgrade or add capacity remains yours. |
