For further information, refer to the HP Advanced Server for OpenVMS Software Product Description (SPD 30.50.xx).

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 for Integrity servers, TCP/IP Services is licensed as part of the Foundation Operating Environment (FOE); therefore, a separate li- cense 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 for Integrity servers is a component of the Foundation Op- erating Environment (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 for In- tegrity servers is a component of the Foundation Operat- ing Environment (FOE) on Integrity servers license bun- dle. The license for DECnet for OpenVMS Alpha and OpenVMS for Integrity servers 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 Environ- ment (EOE) or as a separate per-processor core license (PCL): BA407AC

For more information, refer to the HP DECram for Open- VMS Software Product Description (SPD 34.26.xx).
