Try typing SHOW LICE at the prompt, that should show you what licenses you
have installed. Based on a foggy memory I suspect you've just got the
basic Hobbyist license for OpenVMS installed. You can get the layered
product licenses from the same place.
It says:
VAX-VMS
Producer: DEC
Units: 0
Version: 6.1
Date: (none)
Termination Date: 11-AUG-1999
Availability: 0
Activity: A (VMS Capacity)
NO_SHARE
Do I suspect correctly that NO_SHARE equals no-joy?
Yes, sort of a 'rock and a hard spot' kind of thing. I have been reading
with interest of Wolfgang Moeller's patches to make the VS2000's SCSI more
conformant to standards. But even here is the problem - how to get it
there. I installed a 1.2mb floppy (RX33), but one needs to get data on
the floppy to be of value. Sigh!!!

Um, I don't think there is a 'basic'
answer. First a question, do you have
DECnet and Cluster licenses? If not you can get them as part of the
I think not. How would I know? Are they listed on the "Key Options:"
line of the PAK? SHOW DEV says
that there are 120132 Free Blocks. I don't think that
DECwindows is installed. I am presently using a terminal vice monitor and
keyboard.
I hate blocks (though not as much as links and littelinks), lets see that
should be about 60Mb, which even if you don't have DECnet and clustering
software installed should be plenty of room, HOWEVER, the problem is
getting a copy onto the machine. Zane
P.S. the SHOW LICE command is actually SHOW LICENSE, but SHOW LICE works
and appeals to by twisted sense of humor :^)
