<h4 id="rzahqscixanwsd">Network server description</h4>
<p>The network server description (NWSD) in <a href="rzahqscixsandixa.htm#rzahqscixapic">Figure 13</a> and <a href="rzahqscixsandixa.htm#ixsixaconf">Figure 14</a> is the key i5/OS&trade; configuration object for all types of
integrated servers. The NWSD object is used to tie together all of the other i5/OS objects that relate to an integrated server. For example, it contains
a reference to the hardware that the server runs on, links to the virtual
disk drives that the server uses, references to the network ports that the
server uses and many other attributes of the server. The i5/OS Install Windows
Server (INSWNTSVR) command is used to create the server's NWSD and several
other i5/OS objects that are needed by the server.</p>
<p>For a description of the values that the NWSD contains, see the i5/OS Create Network
Server Description (CRTNWSD) command.</p>
<p>For an integrated server, the IXS and IXA attached xSeries&reg; server hardware
is controlled by i5/OS.</p>
<ul>
<li>An integrated server is started by varying on the NWSD for that server.
This initiates the Windows operating system boot process.</li>
<li>An integrated server is shut down by varying off the NWSD for that server.
This initiates the Windows operating system shut down process.</li>
<li>For an IXS, i5/OS communicates directly with the IXS hardware to perform
the start and shut down tasks.</li>
<li>For an IXA attached xSeries server, i5/OS communicates over a high speed link (HSL)
bus with the IXA that is installed in the xSeries server to initiate the start and shut
down tasks. The IXA in turn communicates with the service processor (SP)
of the xSeries system to perform the start and shut down tasks.

<div class="notetitle" id="wq21">Note:</div>
<div class="notebody">Since the IXA provides a hard-wired connection to the xSeries service
processor, an i5/OS object is not needed to configure the xSeries service
processor characteristics.</div></li></ul><img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /><img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" />
