Product Version and SPR Identifiers
SPR
is the three-digit SPR identifier of the release (for example, ACF). For an initial
PVU, this field is the same as the product version
PNN (for example, H21).
RRR
is the three-digit SQL/MX release number (for example, 220 for SQL/MX Release
2.2.0).
MMDD
is the final build date for the product, including the month and day (for example,
1231 for December 31).
For example, this VPROC command displays information for the T1051 product that is
associated with SQL/MX Release 2.2.0 for H-series RVUs:
T1051H22_02FEB2006_ACF_220_1231
The SQL/MX Master Softdoc (T0650) for each SQL/MX release refers to the release
name and VPROC information.
Product Version and SPR Identifiers
Each SQL/MX release is associated with a product version identifier and possibly an
SPR identifier.
Each product version identifier (for example, “H22”) includes:
Supported platform of the product using “H” for systems running H-series RVUs or
“G” for systems running G-series RVUs
SQL/MX release number (for example, “22” for SQL/MX Release 2.2)
For an initial product version (PV) of NonStop SQL/MX, the product version identifier is
not accompanied by an SPR identifier. For example, the initial PV of SQL/MX Release
2.1 on systems running H-series RVUs is referred to as “H21.”
For a product version update (PVU) of NonStop SQL/MX, the product version identifier
is accompanied by an SPR identifier. For example, the PVU of SQL/MX Release 2.2
on systems running H-series RVUs is referred to as “H22^ACF” where “ACF” is the
SPR identifier.
Availability of SQL/MX Releases
Each SQL/MX release is made available to customers as a General Availability (GA)
release, a Controlled Availability (CA) release, or an Early Adopter Program (EAP)
release.
A GA release is available to any customer who orders the product and whose system
meets the prerequisites for using the product.
