The Question is: What's the difference between the following license PAKS: OPENVMS-ALPHA-USER OPENVMS-ALPHA-ADL OPENVMS-ALPHA and SLS-REMOTE SLS-REMOTE-MGR The Answer is : For specific information, please see the OpenVMS and Storage Library System (SLS) Software Product Description (SPD) documents. The SPDs are referenced in the FAQ. In general terms, here are the meanings of these and other common license PAKs: OPENVMS-ALPHA Is the core OpenVMS operating system Product Authorization Key (PAK). It licenses various operating system functions as described in the SPD. No interactive user logins are premitted by this PAK, though -- per the OpenVMS SPD -- one login is permitted specifically for system management purposes. OPENVMS-ALPHA-USER Is an interactive user PAK, enabling an interactive user to log into and directly use the system. These are NO_SHARE so, in a cluster must be INCLUDEd to a specific node. OPENVMS-ALPHA-ADL Is an OpenVMS Application Deployment License, and is the non-interactive equivalent to a user; a user that is running an application and that has no direct access to the OpenVMS command prompt nor to related features. Contrary to its naming and to the initial and original intent of this particular ADL mechanism, this license is also used as the cluster-wide interactive user license. SLS-REMOTE Is a PAK for SLS (Storage Library System). This PAK enables the node as a remote client. SLS-REMOTE-MGR Also for SLS, but this PAK enables management functions to be performed from the node. UCX TCP/IP Services DVNETEND DVNETEXT DVNETRTG These are various DECnet (Phase IV and DECnet-Plus) licenses. Please see the DECnet Software Product Description (SPD) for details. NET-APP-SUP-150 NET-APP-SUP-200 NET-APP-SUP-250 NET-APP-SUP-300 ... Various aggregate licenses, known collectively as the NAS licenses. Specific NAS levels license specific groups of products. Please see the NAS Software Product Description (SPD) for the details of the products licensed, as these vary. (While you can potentially also see the product groups through OpenVMS commands, these OpenVMS definitions are superceded by the contents and product references in the NAS SPD.)
