Using the License Unit Requirement Table (LURT)  



Many PAKs contain an alphabetic letter in the Availability or Activity fields. This letter refers to a column in the License Unit Requirement Table (LURT), which you can access online at the following URL:

The second column (Operating System Units) in the LURT is also known as Column A. This column lists the number of license units required for each processor listed in the System Model column. The last column (Layered Product Units) in the LURT is also referred to as Column H. It indicates the number of OpenVMS Alpha layered products license units you need to run the system integrated products (SIPs) included with the operating system. For example, if your PAK specifies Availability = A, you would require 50 license units to load the license on a DEC 3000 Alpha Model 500 series computer, or 500 license units to load the license on a DEC 7000 Alpha Model 610 computer.

Note that some PAKs specify MOD_UNITS in the options field. The MOD_UNITS option allows the system manager to use the DCL command LICENSE MODIFY/UNITS to temporarily increase the size of the PAK. This permits a product to be used, in certain emergency situations, on a processor larger than the processor size specified in the license. Check your license terms and conditions before modifying license units. Reset the PAK size to its original size after the emergency situation is resolved.
