Specifications
HP OpenVMS Version 8.4 for Integrity and Alpha servers SPD 82.35.19
The Operating System Base License is a prerequisite
for OpenVMS User Licenses and SMP Base Extension
Licenses.
The Operating System Base License provides the right
to use only the OpenVMS features of the current or prior
versions of the OpenVMS Operating System.
For the AlphaServer ES47, ES80, and GS1280 sys-
tems, the Base License part number does not include
an SMP license for the first CPU. For these systems, an
SMP Extension is required for each CPU, including the
first. The Operating System Base License, in combina-
tion with SMP Extensions, grants the right to use the
operating system on a single, specified system model
for purposes of executing remotely submitted requests
for batch, print, and file services, as well as noninterac-
tive display of information.
2. Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) Base Extension
License (QL–MT1A9–6*)
LMF Product Name: OpenVMS-ALPHA
SMP Base Extensions extend the Operating System
Base License to enable symmetric multiprocessing ca-
pability on those OpenVMS Alpha systems that support
SMP. SMP Base Extensions are permanently tied to the
Operating System Base License and cannot be sepa-
rated from the Operating System Base License if an
SMP board is removed from the system.
SMP Extensions grant the right to use the same version
of the operating system software as permitted for the
corresponding Operating System Base License at the
time when the SMP Extension is granted.
For the AlphaServer ES47, ES80, and GS1280 sys-
tems, each dual SMP Extension to an Operating Sys-
tem Base License grants the rights to an additional dual
CPU system module. The required dual SMP licenses
are bundled with each AlphaServer ES47, ES80, and
GS1280 system board as an add-on part number.
3. Individual User License (QL–MT2A*–**)
(No Longer Offered)
LMF Product Name: OpenVMS-ALPHA-USER
This license grants the right to interactive use of the
OpenVMS Alpha operating system, provided the appro-
priate Operating System Base License has been pre-
viously installed on the OpenVMS Alpha system. The
Individual User Licenses are available in any quantity
desired or as an unlimited user license.
Individual User Licenses can be redesignated and may
be installed and used on a single OpenVMS Alpha
processor only. They may not be shared in a single
OpenVMS Cluster environment. A user is defined as
an individual who is logged in to an OpenVMS Alpha
processor or is interactively using the operating system
software by means other than a login.
This license grants the right to use the same version
of the operating system software as permitted for the
corresponding Operating System Base License at the
time when the User License is installed.
4. OpenVMS Alpha Distributed Interactive User License
(QL–MT3A*–**)
(No Longer Offered)
LMF Product Name: OpenVMS-ALPHA-ADL
This license grants the right to interactive use of the
OpenVMS Alpha operating system, provided the appro-
priate Operating System Base License has been pre-
viously installed on the Alpha system. The ADL Inter-
active User Licenses are concurrent-use licenses and
are available in any quantity desired except unlimited.
ADL Interactive User Licenses can be redesignated and
may be installed and used on a single OpenVMS Alpha
processor, or shared in a single OpenVMS Cluster en-
vironment.
A distributed interactive user is defined as an individual
who is logged in to an OpenVMS Alpha processor or
OpenVMS Cluster or is interactively using the operating
system software by means other than a login.
This license grants the right to use the same version
of the operating system software as permitted for the
corresponding Operating System Base License at the
time when the User License is installed.
5. OpenVMS Concurrent-Use License (for VAX and Al-
pha) (QL–MT3A*–3*)
LMF Product Name: OpenVMS-ALPHA-ADL
This license grants the right to interactive use of the
OpenVMS operating system, provided the appropri-
ate OpenVMS Operating System Base License is in-
stalled on an OpenVMS VAX processor, and/or on
an OpenVMS Alpha processor, or on OpenVMS VAX
processors if one of the five types of VAX VMS Li-
censes has been previously installed on a VAX sys-
tem. The OpenVMS Concurrent-Use Licenses are avail-
able in any quantity desired except unlimited. Open-
VMS Concurrent-Use Licenses are mobile (can be re-
designated) and may be installed and used on a sin-
gle OpenVMS VAX or OpenVMS Alpha processor, or
shared in a single OpenVMS VAXcluster or a single
OpenVMS Cluster, or shared in a mixed-architecture
OpenVMS Cluster.
A user that enables a Concurrent-Use License is de-
fined as an individual who is logged in to an OpenVMS
VAX processor, or an OpenVMS Alpha processor, or
an OpenVMS VAXcluster, or an OpenVMS Cluster, or
a mixed OpenVMS Cluster and/or is interactively us-
ing the OpenVMS operating system software by means
other than a login.
