HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS

HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS is a System Inte-

grated Product (SIP). For OpenVMS Alpha, a separate

license is required. For OpenVMS I64, TCP/IP Ser-

vices is licensed as part of the Foundation Operating

Environment (FOE); therefore, a separate license is not

required.

HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS is HP’s industry-

standard implementation of the TCP/IP and NFS net-

working protocols on the OpenVMS platform. TCP/IP

Services for OpenVMS is integrated with the Open-

VMS operating system installation. TCP/IP Services for

OpenVMS provides interoperability and resource shar-

ing among systems running OpenVMS, UNIX™, Win-

dows, and other operating systems that support TCP/IP.

TCP/IP provides a comprehensive suite of functions and

applications that support industry-standard protocols for

heterogeneous network communications and resource

sharing. TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS provides a full

TCP/IP protocol suite including IP/multicasting, dynamic

load balancing, rlogin proxy, network ﬁle access, remote

terminal access, remote command execution, remote

printing, mail, application development, Post Ofﬁce Pro-

tocol (POP), SNMP Extensible agent (eSNMP), and Fin-

ger Utility.

Refer to the HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS Software

Product Description (SPD 46.46.xx) for further informa-

tion.

HP DECnet-Plus and HP DECnet Software

HP DECnet for OpenVMS Alpha and Integrity server

software is a System Integrated Product (SIP). DEC-

net for OpenVMS Alpha is licensed separately from the

OpenVMS operating system. DECnet for OpenVMS I64

is a component of the Foundation Operating Environ-

ment (FOE) on Integrity servers license bundle.

HP DECnet-Plus (formerly DECnet/OSI) for OpenVMS

Alpha is licensed separately from the OpenVMS oper-

ating system as well. DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS I64

is a component of the Foundation Operating Environ-

ment (FOE) on Integrity servers license bundle. The

license for DECnet for OpenVMS Alpha and OpenVMS

I64 also grants the rights to use DECnet-Plus. Note that

only one version of DECnet can be active on a single

system at any one time. Both DECnet and DECnet-Plus

allow OpenVMS systems to participate in network task-

to-task communications for the purposes of transfer and

copy of ﬁles, printing, the running of applications, etc.

DECnet-Plus offers task-to-task communications, ﬁle

management, downline system and task loading, net-

work command terminals, and network resource shar-

ing capabilities as deﬁned in the DIGITAL Network Ar-

chitecture (DNA) Phase V protocols. DECnet-Plus pro-

vides the newest DECnet features such as extended

addressing and downline-load performance enhance-

ments. DECnet-Plus integrates DECnet and OSI pro-

tocols and now provides a linkage to TCP/IP using

Request for Comments (RFC) 1006 and RFC 1859.

DECnet and OSI applications can now be run over DEC-

net (NSP), OSI (CLNS), and TCP/IP transports.

DECnet for OpenVMS Alpha offers the networking ca-

pabilities as deﬁned in the DIGITAL Network Architec-

ture (DNA) Phase IV. For more information, refer to the

Associated Products section of this SPD.

Refer to the DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS Software Prod-

uct Description (SPD 50.45.xx), or the DECnet for Open-

VMS Software Product Description (SPD 48.48.xx) for

further information.

HP DECram for OpenVMS

HP DECram for OpenVMS is a disk device driver that

improves I/O performance by allowing an OpenVMS

system manager to create pseudo disks (RAMdisks)

that reside in main memory. Frequently accessed data

can be accessed much faster from a DECram device

than from a physical disk device. These RAMdisks can

be accessed through the ﬁle system just as physical

disks are accessed, requiring no change to application

or system software.

Because main memory is allocated for the DECram

device, extra memory is generally required. The

OpenVMS system manager can designate the amount

of memory dedicated to the DECram devices and the

ﬁles that will be stored on it.

Starting with HP OpenVMS Version 8.2, the binary kit

for HP DECram ships with the HP OpenVMS Alpha and

Integrity servers distribution kits. To run the DECram

software, customers must ﬁrst purchase a separate li-

cense.

For HP OpenVMS Alpha customers, the software li-

censes is: QL-MV3A*-**.

For HP OpenVMS for Integrity server customers, a soft-

ware license for HP DECram may be purchased either

as part of the OpenVMS Enterprise Operating Envi-

ronment (EOE) or as a separate per-processor license

(PPL): BA407AC

For more information, refer to the HP DECram for Open-

VMS Software Product Description (SPD 34.26.xx).
