J06.04 is a generally available release version update (RVU) of the HP NonStop Operating System, Mission Critical Edition, supporting HP Integrity NonStop BladeSystems. J06.04 begins shipping on August 20, 2008.
Highlights of RVU J06.04 include the following new and enhanced functions, as well as general defect repair:
- Support for IP and storage cluster I/O modules (CLIMs).
- Improved concurrency for Open System Services (OSS) applications using the pthreads library by supporting non-blocking regular file I/O.
- Greater performance of applications compiled with the TNS/E C/C++, COBOL, and ePTAL compilers due to improved object code optimization.
- Increased debugging capability in Native Inspect, including memory leak detection and improved ability to debug optimized code.
- Better security through improved Safeguard auditing of user, alias, and group records (these records now include creator and creation timestamp fields).
- Improved security in iTP WebServer with support for logical network partitions. Logical network partitions allow administrators to segregate systems in the same physical network into separate partitions, thereby decreasing unwanted accessibility.
