Ok, I've confirmed that you can in fact reproduce
the VMS Consolidated
distribution using a suitably equipped machine with a CD-R drive. Now, one
question I have is what is "NAS" ? There are 12 disks of layered products,
one OS disk, one supplementary products disk, and two NAS disks. What
is/was NAS?
I forget what NAS was originally supposed to stand for, but it
consists of the "basic necessities" for modern operation. Workstation
NAS is a package consisting of DECWindows/Motif, DECNET, TCP/IP, some
network printing stuff, and a VMScluster license. Server NAS is a
package consisting of the above plus Pathworks, Volume Shadowing, and
a few other things. The exact "other things" depends on the exact NAS
package (there higher the number, the more extra stuff - the numbers
I'm familiar with are 150, 250, and 400.)

NAS = NET-APP-SUP which I would assume equals "Network Applications Support".

Ok, so does the hobbyiest license include a license to run DECnet? I tried
running NETCONFIG and it complained that I didn't have a license for DECnet
and I looked at the layered products and didn't see one in that list either.

DVNETEND -- End Node
DVNETEXT -- ?
UCX -- TCP/IP
The commercial NAS licenses would look something like NET-APP-SUP-150 or
NET-APP-SUP-250, these aren't included in the Hobbyist licenses. I believe
a NAS150 is standard with any new OpenVMS box, and takes the place of at
least DVNETEND, and UCX, but I might be wrong.
