4.0 Announcments from our Partners

4.1 Raxco Software, Inc., a longtime provider of system management 
software for OpenVMS, is pleased to announce it has ported its 
PerfectDisk and PerfectCache software to the Integrity platform. 

Raxco is currently seeking beta testers to run PerfectDisk and/or 
PerfectCache on Integrity servers. We are prepared to offer beta 
testers one (1) free product license and a 50% discount on additional 
licenses for their participation in the test program. Raxco will provide 
the beta test requirements. 

PerfectDisk differs from the OVMS defragmenter in several key ways. 
While it defragments files it also consolidates the free space on the 
disk. This provide maximum disk space utilization and improves both 
disk read and write speeds. The free space consolidation also slows re-
fragmentation of the disk. 

PerfectDisk also arranges files by their access patterns grouping rarely 
accessed files together. As long as these files remain in this category 
they do not need to be moved on subsequent defrags. This reduces 
defrag time and saves resources.  Conversely, recently accessed files 
are located adjacent to the consolidated free space which makes it 
easier for them to grow with minimal fragmentation. All of this is done 
in comparable time and with less CPU usage than the OVMS 
defragmenter. 

PerfectCache accelerates disk I/O several fold and reduces the time it 
takes applications to complete a task. In our preliminary testing 
PerfectCache was up to 20% faster than the OVMS cache technology. 
PerfectCache on Vista uses a unique file allocation algorithm that 
ensures maximum caching and accelerates file access for optimal 
performance. 

You can enroll in the PerfectDisk and/or PerfectCache beta test 
program by sending us an email OVMSBeta at raxco.com . A Raxco 
technical representative will contact you with details.
----------------------------

4.2 notice about Unicenter Licensing Issue that could come into play on 
Jan 3rd.  It will effect OpenVMS clients who are not at the latest service 
pack levels on VAX and ALPHA of my product line.  OpenVMS I64 
products will be fine.

 

Here is a pointer to the Corp Announcement

http://supportconnectw.ca.com/public/ca_common_docs/lic_expire.asp

VMS Specific Announcement:

Licensing considerations for Unicenter for OpenVMS and Enterprise 
Edition Products running on OpenVMS VAX and Alpha
Note: This document does not apply to systems running OpenVMS I64.

Unicenter for OpenVMS and Enterprise Edition products that are 
running with a version of CA Licensing older than V1.57 may start 
displaying out-of-compliance messages after January 3rd, 
2007,however the product will continue to run.

The CA Enterprise Edition V2.4 products known as AdviseIT,WatchIT, 
ScheduleIT and CommandIT are affected only if they are not properly 
licensed. If you have any of these products installed on your systems, 
you should examine the contents of the following file to verify the 
existence of valid license keys for any V2.4 Enterprise Edition products 
installed on the system:

SYS$SPECIFIC:[CA_LIC]CA.OLF

It should be noted that the end-of-support date for V2.4 of the 
Enterprise Edition products has passed and that systems running 
these versions should be upgraded to the current, supported version.

How to determine if your systems are affected:

To determine if any of your systems are affected and if the licensing 
update should be installed, perform the following:

$ ANALYZE/IMAGE/INTERACTIVE  SYS$SHARE:CALIC$SHR.EXE

Press Return until the section titled "Image Identification

Information" is displayed. Examine the field labeled "Image File 
Identification:". If this field has a value that includes the string "V2.0" 
or is of the form "162-yyyymmdd-xx", then no further action is 
necessary.

Solution:

Elimination of the out-of-compliance messages requires that the latest 
version of CA Licensing for OpenVMS be downloaded from:

http://supportconnectw.ca.com/public/reglic/downloads/licensepatch.as
p#alp 

Click the OpenVMS link to access the page from where the licensing

update kit may be downloaded.
