I took an action item to the question that Arnold asked about an on line Integrity Configuration. I said that I would send out the answer.<br /><br />HP does have a tool available which is located at the following link<br /><a target="_blank" href="http://h30099.www3.hp.com/configurator/catalog-hpintegrity.asp">http://h30099.www3.hp.com/configurator/catalog-hpintegrity.asp</a><br />______________________________________________________________________<br /><br />1.0 From VMS Engineering<br /><br />We now have the HTTPs OpenView Agents for OpenVMS agents for Integrity Servers available at the same web site:<br /><a target="_blank" href="http://h71000.www7.hp.com/openvms/products/openvms_ovo_agent/index.html">http://h71000.www7.hp.com/openvms/products/openvms_ovo_agent/index.html</a><br />If you remember on September 12th I sent out a message which contain Field Test announcement information<br />HP is pleased to announce the pre-release version (T8.0-1) of the HTTPS OVO Agents and VMSSPI on OpenVMS Integrity. The production release (Version 8.0) is planned for the end of 2007.<br />This version of the OVO agents and VMSSPI can only be used with the HP Operations Management (OM) Server for UNIX (OMU 8.x).<br />Main features and Benefits for the software<br /><br />The HTTPS communication feature provides highly secure communication between OM 8.x management servers and their managed nodes.<br /><br />HTTPS-based communication provides simple management through firewalls and uses out-of-the-box Internet Secure Communication using SSL/PKI encryption with server and client certificates for authentication.<br /><br />HTTPS-based communication provides IP independence.<br />Managed nodes can be identified by their unique OvCoreID and not necessarily by their IP addresses. HTTPS agents are generally used and administered in the same way as DCE-based agents. Applications are launched in the same way. All functionality that is available with DCE-based agents is also available with HTTPS agents unless explicitly stated otherwise.<br /><br />Policies for HTTPS agents are created, assigned and deployed in a similar way as templates are for DCE-based agents.<br />_______________________________________________<br /><br />2.0 Sue's Fav's<br /><br />2.1 PDV-Nord GmbH and BRUDEN-OSSG deliver the first set of Integrity Blade (BL860c) systems with OpenVMS V8.3-1H1 and Oracle 10gR2 RAC.<br /><br />OpenVMS V8.3-1H1 (announced October 25th 2007) has been installed on a standalone BL860c together with Oracle 10gR2 on Monday October 22nd at the customer site.<br /><br />This week Guy Peleg of BRUDEN-OSSG configured 2 OpenVMS clusters running OpenVMS V8.3-1H1 and Oracle 10gR2 RAC. Each (mixed architecture) cluster consists of 2 BL860c's and one DS15 serving as a voting member, running OpenVMS V8.3.

VAX systems at ten Maricopa colleges were converted to the CHARON VAX environment within a matter of weeks by Salem Automation. The CHARON VAX upgrade enabled two key disk I/O performance improvements, the move from 10 MB to 100 MB network adapters and the use of current, high speed Serial-Attached-SCSI (SAS) drive technology in the HP servers. These performance improvements make the extraction and transmission of the legacy data run several hundred percent faster, allowing operations staff to complete their work in less shifts and shortening processing windows for everyone. Batch jobs and backups run anywhere from 200 to 400% faster and online users see a more responsive system because there is less contention for resources during the day. Other comments from Maricopa IT staff<br />included: "Focus jobs are taking 2 minutes instead of 40" and "Reboot takes 10 minutes instead of 40 minutes".

It includes a compiler that can handle all three versions of the Ada standard -- Ada 83, Ada 95, and Ada 2005 -- and provides a rich set of auxiliary tools and an extensive set of libraries. Ada-aware debugging is provided through HP's OpenDebug.<br /><br />In this half-hour webinar AdaCore, with HP's participation, will describe the features and benefits of the GNAT Pro Ada development environment on HP OpenVMS I64 and answer questions from the audience. A particular focus will be on how to port Ada code from HP Ada on VAX and Alpha servers to GNAT Pro on OpenVMS I64. GNAT Pro supplies an extensive set of pragmas and attributes that are compatible with HP Ada, and for most Ada code the porting process should be reasonably straightforward. For those situations where the program makes architectural assumptions that do not apply to I64 (for example 32-bit<br />addresses) the webinar will identify the issues and offer effective solutions.<br /><br />HP participants in the webinar will include Swastik Bihani (Product Manager, HP Business Critical Systems).<br />AdaCore participants will include Ben Brosgol (Project Manager), and Douglas Rupp and Vasiliy Fofanov (Principal Engineers).<br /><br />You can enroll for this webinar at <a target="_blank" href="http://www.adacore.com/home/gnatpro/webinars">http://www.adacore.com/home/gnatpro/webinars</a><br /><br />----------------<br /><br />4.3 KayCee Software<br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.kaycee.net/kcsi/">http://www.kaycee.net/kcsi/</a><br />KayCee Software is a great long time VMS Partner that has excellent software for Colleges and Universities.
