OpenVMS Startup File?

» close window

The Question is:

 
What is the default installation folder and startup file in an OpenVMS
 installation. Need it for making a Operating System selection

The Answer is :

 
  The terminology you use -- particularly an installation folder -- is
  not terminology typical of OpenVMS.  The startup files used are the
  startup database (managed by the SYSMAN utility) and the site-specific
  system startup command procedure SYSTARTUP_V*.COM file SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM
  on V6.0 and later, SYSTARTUP_V5.COM on older releases).  A template
  file SYSTARTUP_V*.TEMPLATE is also provided, and this template file
  is updated as new OpenVMS releases are shipped.
 
  Please skim through the OpenVMS Installation and Upgrade manual and
  the OpenVMS System Manager's Essentials manuals for details on
  configuring, managing and performing typical OpenVMS startup and
  shutdown operations.
