Charon-PAR Model Names


Charon-PAR/PA9-64 model name details

The model names of Charon-PAR emulated historic PA-RISC systems for HP-UX consist of three parts:

<family-name>-<number-of-cpus>-<clock-speed>

Parameters:

  • family-name describes the model family, e.g., rp2400,
  • number-of-cpus describes the number of emulated CPUs, and
  • clock-speed describes the CPU clock frequency in MHz.

Example: rp2470-2-750 stands for an rp2470 model with two 750-MHz CPUs.

Abbreviations are possible, e.g,, rp2470-1 stands for an rp2470-1-750 model. See configuration file templates for permitted abbreviations.


Charon-PAR/PA9-32 model name details

Currently, there are the following 32-bit models:

  • The PA9-32/720 (PA-RISC v1.1a) with single CPU at 50MHz, model string: "720"
  • The PA9-32/B132L with 1 CPU at 132MHz (oversized models with up to 16 CPUs may be available), model string: B132L-<nr-of-cpus>.
    Supported starting with Charon-PAR 3.0.7.


Charon-PAR/PA3 model name details

The model names of Charon-PAR emulated historic PA-RISC systems for MPE/iX consist of three parts:

<family-name>-<number-of-cpus>-<clock-speed>

Parameters:

  • family-name describes the model family, e.g., A400,
  • number-of-cpus describes the number of emulated CPUs multiplied by 100, and
  • clock-speed describes the CPU clock frequency in MHz.

ExampleA400-100-110 is a single-CPU A400 system running at 110 MHz.


Device Addressing Terminology

In the following sections, an important part of the hardware configuration of an emulated model are the so called device paths.

A device path has the following structure: SBA/LBA/device-number/function[.target.LUN]. These components have the following meaning:

  • SBA: system bus adapter
  • LBA: local bus adapter
  • Device number: identification of an individual device (e.g., an Ethernet card).
  • Function: identification of a particular unit of functionality (e.g., one Ethernet port or one SCSI bus) on a specific device. There can be up to four functions per device.
  • Target: optional further identification. Its use depends on the type of device connected. For example, a SCSI target ID.
  • LUN: logical unit number of SCSI devices (e.g., disks and tapes). Used to address a logical unit associated with a SCSI target ID.

Examples:

  • SBA 0, LBA 0, device number 1, function 0 results in a device path of 0/0/1/0
  • SBA 0, LBA 2, device number 1, function 1 results in a device path of 0/2/1/1
  • SBA 0, LBA 0, device number 1, function 0, SCSI target ID 1, LUN 0 results in a device path of 0/0/1/0.1.0

Charon-PAR/PA9-64 - Supported 64-bit Model Configurations

This chapter describes the hardware configuration of the supported emulated historic 64-bit PA-RISC models for HP-UX. This information will be referred to in other section, e.g., the configuration file reference.

A500 Family Hardware Configuration

Models of the A500 family have 4 PCI buses.

Built-in controllers (all on PCI bus 0):

ControllerDevice path(s)Controller character code (for SCSI device names)
DEC 21143 Tulip 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet controller0/0/0/0
Dual SCSI-2 Controller (53C875)0/0/1/0 and 0/0/1/1

A = 0/0/1/0
B = 0/0/1/1

Dual SCSI-3 LVD controller (53C896)0/0/2/0 and 0/0/2/1C = 0/0/2/0
D = 0/0/2/1
