  • Overview

    This course provides the information needed to convert applications to run on the HPE Integrity Nonstop X Servers. The course starts with an overview of the hardware architecture and then covers program migration information for each of the main languages. Other topics include the debuggers available on the new systems, including a new Native Inspect debugger, a new PC hosted TNS debugger, the new linker, and changes to NSDEE. The course is 60 percent lecture and 40 percent hands-on labs using HPE Integrity Nonstop X servers.
  • Audience
