RMS File Utilities
Record Management Services (RMS) file utilities allow
users to analyze the internal structure of an RMS file
and tune the I/O, memory, space and performance pa-
rameters of the file. The RMS file utilities can also be
used to create, load, and reclaim space in an RMS file.
Refer to the Operating System Environment section of
this SPD for more information about RMS.
File Differences Utility
This utility compares the contents of two files and lists
those records that do not match.
Translated Image Environment (TIE) (Alpha)
OpenVMS Alpha provides an array of services that
allow the operation of programs which have under-
gone binary translation from OpenVMS VAX images.
These programs perform virtually all user-mode func-
tions on OpenVMS Alpha and operate in combination
with other programs (images) that have been translated
from OpenVMS VAX or have been built using native
compilers on OpenVMS Alpha. Without requiring spe-
cial source code, the TIE resolves differences between
the VAX and Alpha architectures, including floating-
point registers, condition codes, exception handling, and
ASTs. The TIE included with OpenVMS Alpha can run
images that have been translated elsewhere.

Translated Image Environment (TIE)
(Integrity servers)
OpenVMS I64 provides an array of services that allow
the operation of programs which have undergone binary
translation from OpenVMS Alpha images or VESTed
OpenVMS VAX images. These programs perform vir-
tually all user-mode functions on OpenVMS for Integrity
servers and operate in combination with other programs
(images) that have been translated from OpenVMS Al-
pha or VAX, or have been built using native compilers on
OpenVMS I64. Without requiring special source code,
the TIE resolves differences between the Alpha and In-
tegrity architectures, including floating-point.

SYSTEM MANAGEMENT ENVIRONMENT
OpenVMS provides a set of tools and utilities that aid
the system manager in configuring and maintaining an
optimal system as follows:
HP Availability Manager
HP Availability Manager is a system management tool
that enables you to monitor one or more OpenVMS
nodes on an extended local area network (LAN) from
either an OpenVMS Alpha node or a PC running Win-
dows. This tool helps system managers and analysts
target a specific node or process for detailed analysis
and also can resolve certain performance or resource
problems. It is the multiplatform replacement for the
DECamds product, and includes the DECamds func-
tionality in its capabilities.
The Data Collector, part of the Availability Manager
product, collects system and process data on an
OpenVMS node and should be installed on each node
that you need to monitor (Alpha and Integrity servers).
The Data Analyzer analyzes and displays the data col-
lected by the Data Collector, and can analyze and dis-
play data from many OpenVMS nodes simultaneously
(OpenVMS Alpha nodes, and PCs running Windows™).
Hardware recommendations and related documentation
are available via the OpenVMS System Management
web page located at:
http://www.hp.com/products/openvms/availabilitymanager/
DECamds
DECamds is in maintenance mode and is not available
on OpenVMS Version 8.2 or higher. Availability Man-
ager replaces DECamds. DECamds will install and run
on OpenVMS Alpha Version 6.2 through Version 7.3-2.
DECamds will not install on OpenVMS Alpha or
OpenVMS Integrity Version 8.2 or higher.
HP Management Agents for OpenVMS
The introduction of (Systems) Insight Manager enables
management of all your HP platforms inclusive of Open-
VMS from a single (Systems) Insight Manager server.
HP Insight Management Agents for OpenVMS is an ex-
ample of an Insight Manager Web agent. It provides the
means of communication between OpenVMS devices
with Systems Insight Manager and the web browser.
The Systems Insight Manager management server pro-
vides a single reference point for all devices on which
web agents have been installed through the SNMP pro-
tocol. Devices can be computer systems, networked
printers or network components such as routers. The
HP Insight Management Agents for OpenVMS and re-
lated documentation is available on the OpenVMS Sys-
tem Management web page located at:
