Highlights:
First time we had a two headed (two displays) application ported from
Alpha to I64 System was Genetek Earth Research and used GKS to
show
seismic graphics.
AEST, the binary translator, was used by several people - generally it
worked quite well.
Fairly large (~700K) set of solutions written in Synergex Dibol, were
ported with no code changes in about 2 hours.
Solutions had a mix of development languages such as C, C++,
Macro32,
Basic, Pascal, Fortran, Cobol, and Dibol. Oracle Rdb and CDD were also
used by several people.
Quotes / Comments:
"The new HP Integrity Servers are an excellent migration path,
especially for Alpha system users. The conversion went extremely well
and only took a matter of hours to complete. The future for VMS looks
brighter than ever!! HP & Intel have done an excellent job!!
Completed 1,639 program - 17 applications. All are written in Synergex
Dibol. Absolutely nothing had to be changed in our code. Complete
port
/ conversion took approximately 2 hours once the Synergex PAKs were
installed"
"Well organized. John and the rest of the HP/Intel team were great.
Enjoyed the casual, yet professional atmosphere of the workshop"
"I'm absolutely amazed - the build times on OpenVMS Integrity are
more
than 10 times faster than on Alpha. I haven't had this much fun in
years, this is really exciting!"
"The workshop was very instructive, informative, and fun. The VMS
team
of John, Karen, Lenny & Sue were great to work with - bright,
knowledgeable, and personable."
"One of the best workshops I have ever attended!"
"Intense! A great way to begin the port and learn from the experts!"
"A wonderful opportunity to port my code under the supervision of very
qualified instructors."
"Very informative and very professional."
"Second time I attended and I still find it extremely valuable. Lots to
learn and assimilate; lots of work to get done!"
"It [the workshop] provided all the tools, information, and time to get
your application ported to Integrity / VMS"
"I was amazed at how easy my utilities compiled and ran. I did not
need
to edit any code, even as old as it is"
"The HP staff were exceptionally helpful in getting the layered products
and my own missing data needed for the port."
"The workshop was well organized and prepared. The expertise was
top
notch."
"The workshop was awesome! The presenters were well-informed,
helpful,
and pleasant. I enjoyed the hands-on opportunity"
"The migration went smoothly, but it was really nice having folks on
hand who knew the ropes and had been through it all before.

NEMONIX(tm) Engineering is pleased to announce a Dual Port Gigabit
Ethernet Controller for DS, ES, and GS series HP AlphaServers.
NEMONIX(tm) Engineering, long known for VAX performance
enhancements, is
now expanding their offerings to include HP AlphaServer system
hardware
enhancements. This continues the strategic focus of extending customer
ROI on existing HP OpenVMS systems. The controller was jointly
engineered over the past year by NEMONIX(tm) Engineering and HP in
response to HP customer demand. This first AlphaServer offering is
targeted at owners of DS, ES, and GS systems. It brings expanded
network
flexibility and gigabit ethernet speeds to AlphaServers beyond the
included single 10/100 Mb capability. It is also targeted to eliminate
"slot crunch" in slot limited systems like the DS10L/20L by providing
enhanced network configuration opportunities. The controller operates
in
a single 64 bit PCI or PCI-x slot in supported AlphaServer
configurations.
