IMPORTANT SUPPORT NOTICE:
Effective December 1st, 2014, some OpenVMS products will undergo a support status change from
Standard Support to Mature Product Support without Sustaining Engineering. The
following table lists the affected products and their replacements
and workarounds.
|
Affected Product |
Replacement and workaround
|
| Distributed Queuing Service (DQS) – Alpha and Integrity |
- Standard OpenVMS
PRINT commands, such
as
lpr and
lpq. With the
availability of
DECNET over IP, the
PRINT command is
more comprehensive
than DQS.
- If you do not
want to use DECnet,
you can use the
telnet Symbiont to
access remote queues
in addition to
lpd. The
equivalent commands
for telnet Symbiont
queues are the
standard OpenVMS
commands.
|
| Software RAID – Alpha and Integrity |
Controller RAID
or Shadowing |
| Debug Clients for Windows (also known as Windex) – Alpha and
Integrity |
DECwindows Motif
client interface offers similar
features as the Windex. |
| OpenView Operations (OVO) DCE Agent – Alpha and Integrity |
HP OpenVMS
Operations Manager HTTPS Agent and
SPI |
|
Management Station (also known as
Argus) – Alpha and Integrity |
DCL syntax or
command procedures |
| Enterprise Capacity and Performance (ECP) – Alpha and
Integrity |
- You can replace
ECP Data Collector
with Performance
Data Collector (TDC)
- You can replace
ECP Performance
Analyzer with TLViz
and T4
|
As a result of the support status change, the affected
products will no longer have active engineering development to produce
subsequent versions. This change will affect all the supported versions of the
product on both OpenVMS for Alpha and OpenVMS for Integrity servers.
For more information on the support available, see

HP simplifies software procurement, installation, and management for OpenVMS on HP Integrity servers with Operating Environment (OE) bundles. Each OE bundle includes products that create a complete
environment designed for increasing levels of management, availability, and disaster tolerance.
Operating Environments on Integrity from version 8.4:
Starting from OpenVMS Version 8.4, the three-tier Operating Environment model, which
consists of Foundation Operating Environment (FOE), Enterprise Operating Environment
(EOE), and Mission Critical Operating Environment (MCOE) is replaced with a two-tier
Operating Environment model consisting of Base Operating Environment (BOE) and High Availability Operating Environment (HA-OE).
- Base Operating Environment (BOE):
BOE bundle includes all the components of FOE, which includes the operating system, along with networking and
infrastructure software and two components from EOE. The following component products that were formerly part of the EOE are now part of the BOE:
- DECram for OpenVMS
- HP OpenVMS Management Station
- High Availability Operating Environment (HA-OE):
HA-OE bundle includes all components of Mission Critical Operating Environment (MCOE)
including Clusters and HP Reliable Transaction Router, four components
of Enterprise Operating Environment (EOE) and Global Work Load Manager (gWLM)
agent for OpenVMS. The following products that were formerly part of the EOE are now part of the HA-OE:
- HP Availability Manager
- OpenView Performance Agent (OVPA) for OpenVMS
- RMS Journaling for OpenVMS
- HP Volume Shadowing for OpenVMS
HA-OE component products are not included in the BOE and can be ordered separately.
Operating Environments on Integrity for version 8.3-1H1 and earlier:
- The Foundation Operating Environment (FOE) is a fully featured operating environment. It delivers the base OpenVMS operating system with single-system reliability, security,
serviceability, manageability, and interoperability features.
- The Enterprise Operating Environment (EOE) includes all of the components of the FOE, plus tools to enhance the user experience in the areas of manageability, single-system
availability, and performance.
- The premium Mission Critical Operating Environment (MCOE) bundle delivers the ultimate user experience in terms of multisystem availability and workload management. This package
includes everything in the FOE and EOE.
In addition, OpenVMS version 8.3-1H1 and earlier on HP Integrity servers is available in localized versions for Japan, Korea (Hangul), and China (Hanzi). Also, note that individual products can be purchased a la carte to meet
specialized requirements.
