PrefaceIntended AudienceThis manual is written for the system manager or system operator whohas training in systems management and is running a DEC 7000 AXP system or a VAX 7000 system.Document StructureThis manual uses a structured documentation design. Topics are organizedinto small sections for efficient on-line and printed reference. Each topicbegins with an abstract. You can quickly gain a comprehensive overviewby reading only the abstracts. Next is an illustration or example, whichalso provides quick reference. Last in the structure are descriptive textand syntax definitions.This manual has four chapters and three appendixes, as follows: Chapter 1, DEC 7000 AXP System and VAX 7000 Systems, andChapter 2, System Components, give a basic introduction to yoursystem and its parts. Chapter 3, Controls and Indicators, describes how the system presents information and how you use the switches. Chapter 4, Booting, explains how you turn on the system and get itrunning. Appendix A, Console Commands, lists the console commands witha brief explanation of each command. Appendix B, Boot Options, lists options used with the boot command to control various phases of booting. Appendix C, Updating Firmware, explains how to run the LoadableFirmware Update (LFU) Utility. A Glossary and Index provide additional reference support.vii
Conventions Used in This DocumentTerminology. Unless specified otherwise, the use of "system" refers toeither a DEC 7000 AXP or VAX 7000 system. The DEC 7000 AXP systemsuse the Alpha AXP architecture. References in text use DEC 7000 to referto DEC 7000 AXP systems.When a discussion applies to only one system, an icon is used to highlightthat system. Otherwise, the discussion applies to both systems. Thus, theabstract for a module that applies only to DEC 7000 systems would looklike this:This section shows a sample boot of OpenVMS Alpha AXPDEC from the RRD42 CD drive for DEC 7000 systems. The first7000step is issuing the show device command to determine thelocation of the RRD42.Book titles. In text, if a book is cited without a product name, that book ispart of the hardware documentation. It is listed in Table 1 along with itsorder number.Icons. The icons shown below are used in illustrations for designating partplacement in the system described. A shaded area in the icon shows thelocation of the component or part being discussed.FrontRearDocumentation TitlesTable 1 lists the books in the DEC 7000 and VAX 7000 documentation set.Table 2 lists other documents that you may find useful.viii

Chapter 1DEC 7000 AXP System andVAX 7000 SystemThe DEC 7000 AXP system and VAX 7000 systems are designed forgrowth offering configuration flexibility, an outstanding I/O subsystem,and expansion capability in a single or multicabinet environment. TheDEC 7000 system or VAX 7000 system can support many users in a timesharing environment. These systems do the following: Support the full range of system applications of OpenVMS Alpha AXPor OSF/1 for DEC 7000 systems and OpenVMS VAX for VAX 7000 systems Allow for expansion of processors, memory, and I/O Use a high-speed system interconnect bus (LSB bus), which has an effective bandwidth of 640 Mbytes/sec. Support up to 3.5 Gbytes of physical memory Provide optional self-contained uninterruptible power system (UPS)capability that supports the system in case of power failure Perform automatic self-test on power-up, reset, reboot, or system initialization Operate as a standalone system, a member of a cluster, or as a bootnode of a local area clusterThe chapter describes the system package and introduces the location ofcomponents in the cabinet—both front and rear views. Sections include: System Characteristics System Architecture Sample System System Front View System Rear ViewDEC 7000 AXP System and VAX 7000 System 1-1

The values in Table 1-1 apply to the system cabinet only. The values areconfiguration dependent. Additional options will increase electrical requirements so that an additional power regulator may be needed.Table 1-1Electrical CharacteristicsElectricalSpecification3-phase AC inputvoltage202 V RMS120/208 V RMS380–415 V RMSNominal frequency50–60 HzAC current, nominal,(per phase)24 A (202 V)24 A (120/208 V)12.8 A (380–415 V)Maximum current(per phase)30 A (202 V)30 A (120/208 V)16 A (380–415 V)AC power consumption(maximum)5.2 KVA5.2 KWTable 1-2Environmental CharacteristicsEnvironmentalOperatingStorageHeat dissipation17,700 Btu/hr (max)–Temperature115 –28 C (59 –82 F)-40 –66 C (-40 –151 F)Relative humidity120–80%10–95%Altitude0–2.4 km (0–8000 ft)0–9.1 km (0–30,000 ft)1Recommended operating temperature is 18 –24 C (65 –75 F) and 40–60% relative humidity.DEC 7000 AXP System and VAX 7000 System 1-3
1.2 System ArchitectureThe high-speed LSB bus is used to interconnect processors, memory modules, and the IOP module.Figure 1-2Sample System NADEMFACIXCDKFMSAKDM70KZMSABXB-0054B-921-4 DEC 7000 AXP System and VAX 7000 System
The LSB bus is a synchronous 128-bit system bus that interconnects theprocessors, memory modules, and the I/O port (IOP) module. The IOPmodule connects the LSB bus to I/O buses through separate I/O adaptermodules.The LSB bus uses the concept of a node. The LSB bus has three types ofnodes: processors, memories, and an I/O port controller.A processor node is a single-module scalar processor. It consists of aCPU chip, the LSB bus interface, cache, and support logic. DEC 7000 sys
