Configuring the Input/Output Module
Introduction
This section explains how to configure the I/O module (IOM) and its components.
It covers that portion of the Input/Output system considered part of the central
system; that is, from the IOB for the NX5820 or the KIUB for the NX5820 K to the
Common Input/Output Module (CIOM) and including the channel interface.
It does not cover from the channel interface outward. That information is included in
the Unisys e-@ction ClearPath Enterprise Servers A Series and NX Systems
I/O Configuration Guide (7008 6087). See "Information Contained in the I/O
Configuration Guide" at the end of this section for a list of topics.
