1 Installing and configuring NonStop for
the XP disk array
You and the HP service representative each play a role in installation. The HP service representative

continuous availability for applications, databases, and devices. The NonStop OS and servers support
high transaction volumes and complex mixed workloads. An open application development environment

application programming interfaces.
