• DTS client (Itanium Version)
• CMA Threads: POSIX 1003.1c, a user-space implementation (PA-RISC) only
• DCE runtime library, CMA version, 32 and 64 bit version of Kernel Threaded
version, 32 and 64 bit version of KT runtime library are available in native Itanium
• DCE-CoreTools as in HP-UX 11i v1 (PA-RISC version)
Summary of Change
The following products are available on HP-UX 11i v2 as part of HP DCE version 1.9:
• DCE-Core: PA-RISC version remains as it is except for DCE-CORE-RUN and
DCE-CORE-DTS.
• DCE-COR-IA-RUN is new fileset and has native Itanium daemons dced, cdsadv,
auditd. DCE-COR-IA-RUN now has native Itanium and Kernel threaded versions of
auditd, cdsadv, dced, and the supporting library libdcedpvtkt.so.
• DCE-COR-IA-DTS is new fileset and has native Itanium binaries: dtsd, auditd,
dts_spectracom_provider, dts_null_provider, and dts_ntp_provider.
• DCE-COR-PA-RUN is new fileset and has PA-RISC daemons dced, cdsadv, auditd.
• DCE-COR-PA-DTS is new fileset and has PA-RISC deliverables : dtsd,
dts_spectracom_provider, dts_null_provider, and dts_ntp_provider.
NOTE PA-RISC DCE libraries are provided so that non-ported/compiled PA-RISC DCE
applications can continue to run on HP-UX 11i v2. These applications will use the
dynamic emulator, Aries. (See “Aries Binary Translator” on page 206.)
Integrated Login product has Itanium and KT ported versions of ilogind, libpma_dce,
libnss_dce. Both 32- and 64-bit Itanium-based versions of libpam_dce and
libnss_dce are available.
DCE Client daemons and DCE runtime is now is IPv6 enabled: two new APIs,
rpc_server_inq_all_bindings() and rpc_network_inq_all_protseqs(), have been
provided, which can be used to write IPv6 applications.
The following products are available on HP-UX 11i v2 through the Application Release
CD:
• CDS Services: DCE-CDS-Server
• Security Server: DCE-SEC-Server
• DCE Administration Tools: DCE-CoreAdmin
Impact
To take advantage of the Itanium features, you need to recompile your RPC applications.
Compatibility
DCE client applications on Itanium system can work with DCE server on a PA-RISC
system.
