German term or phrase: Einrüstung
This is from a handbook for equipment on board a navy ship. I am having difficulty with the last sentence from the following section:

Der Server dient als File- und Datenbankserver, auf dem Windows NT 4.0 und die Datenbank VDB laufen. Im Netzwerk sind 25 Arbeitsplatzrechner und 2 Notebooks angeschlossen. Als Backupserver steht im EDV Raum 2 ein identischer Rechner zur Verfügung. Beide Server werden über einen gesonderten Giga Bit-Kanal miteinander verbunden und mit der Software VINCA Stand by Server gespiegelt. Bei COTS- Produkten (wie z. B. den Servern) kommt die zu dem Zeitraum der _Einrüstung_ zur Verfügung stehende aktuelle Hardware zum Einsatz.

The server acts as a file and databank server on which Windows NT 4.0 and the VDB databank run. 25 workstations and 2 workstation computers are connected in the network. An identical computer is available in EDV room 2 as a backup server. The two servers are connected with one another via a separate giga-bit channel, and mirrored with VINCA Standby Server software. The currently available hardware is used for COTS products (such as servers).

The last sentence is extremely difficult for me. I can't figure out the German in the portion that I left out in my translation, and in particular, I have no idea what "Einrüstung" would mean in this context. (I added the underscoring to draw attention to the word.) This is from the end of a section, so there is no following sentence that would help provide more context.
