The MSW Network (System by System)
The MSW network includes a variety of system types: server systems,
workstations, personal computers, and thin clients. There are also
several network-based printers. For details on the specific systems listed
in the preceding table, review the following descriptions until you find
the system that interests you.
Server Systems
The MSW example network includes two server systems:
appserver This system, a 32-way Superdome configured with a
single partition, is an applications server in the
example network. It is running HP-UX 11i Version 1.
flserver This system, an HP9000 rp8400, is one of the key
computers in the network. Its name reflects its primary
use, a file server. It is where this workgroup stores
most of its data.
