The procedure now presents
information about software that you can install along with the OpenVMS operating
system. Some of this software is required, as noted; some is optional.
The procedure asks if you want to install the following HP windowing
and networking software products:
CDSA (required)
Kerberos (required)
DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS
DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS or DECnet Phase IV for OpenVMS
(but not both)
TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS
The software that you choose to install (including the previously
listed required software) will be installed along with the OpenVMS
Alpha operating system. You can change the default values for these
products later in the installation procedure.
The OpenVMS Alpha installation menu offers the choice
to install DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS or DECnet Phase IV for OpenVMS
networking software. You cannot have both installed
on your system at the same time. You can choose to install neither
DECnet product; however, certain products that depend on DECnet
might be affected.
After you have DECnet-Plus and TCP/IP installed on your system,
you can run DECnet applications over your TCP/IP network. For more
information on DECnet over TCP/IP, see the DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS Network Management.
The software products display is similar to the following:
