C3700 and J6700 Workstations Need Processor Board
Upgrade
C3700 and J6700 workstations currently support HP-UX 11.0 but
require PA-8700 processor board upgrades (to version 2.3) to support
HP-UX 11i v1. Contact your HP Customer Engineer for more details.
OLA/R Support
For rp7410 servers: slots 0-0-0-1 and 0-0-1-8 are dedicated to the
LAN/SCSI card portion of the MP Core I/O, and do not support OLA/R if
cards in these slots are considered “critical resources”. For more about
OLA/R support, see “SCSI PCI Restrictions for OLA/R” on page 188 in
Appendix B and this web site:

HP 3D Graphics No Longer Supported pre PA-RISC
2.0 Systems
IMPORTANT As of the September 2002 HP-UX 11i v1 release, HP 3D Graphics are no
longer supported on PA-RISC systems older than version 2.0. If you have
an older PA-RISC workstation and need 3D Graphics, HP recommends
that you do not install or update to the June 2004 release of the
Technical Computing (TCOE) or Minimal Computing Operating
Environments (MCOE).
Previous releases of HP-UX 11i v1 still support PA-RISC 2.0 and older
systems. If you have any questions about your particular situation,
please contact your local HP Country Response Center.
How to Determine Your System’s PA-RISC Version
With the System Administration Manager (SAM), select: Performance
Monitors > System Properties. Your PA-RISC version will appear next
to the CPU Version line:
PA 8600-8600 CPU 3.1
If this lines reads less than 8000, then your CPU version is older than
version 2.0
