When the licenses expire nothing will actually happen
until you reboot the
machine, at which point LMF will refuse to load them. VMS itself will still
come up but you'll only be allowed to log in at the console. 'Course, VMS
has its reputation for reliability so it normal circumstances a reboot might
not happen for the next year, but I have a habit of tripping the power in
this house :)
If hp *does* say 'screw that' I'll just build a linux or *BSD box. It's
not
like I haven't got the hardware to do it :)
I believe things are in place to continue the program even if HP does drop
out.
