Table 1–3 Operating System Software Requirements
Software Requirements
Operating System HP OpenVMS version 7.3
Oracle Net Requirements Oracle Net on HP OpenVMS is developed and certified using
Hewlett-Packard TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS (UCX)
.
If
you wish to use the TCP/IP protocol adapter for Oracle Net,
then you should have Version 5.1 ECO 4 or higher of TCP/IP
Services for HP OpenVMS Alpha installed
.
TCP/IP protocol
stacks from other vendors may work with Oracle, but
customers use these products at their own risk
.
Any TCP/IP
problems that cannot be reproduced using TCP/IP Services for
HP OpenVMS Alpha will simply be referred to the TCP/IP
vendor.
Vendor-provided protocol services are usually upward
compatible, so that existing applications will continue to work
without modification
.
Thus, later releases of TCP/IP are
upward compatible with Oracle Net, provided that the
vendor-specified Application Programming Interface (API)
does not change with new releases.
Window Manager X-Windows must be installed on the system from which the
Oracle Universal Installer is run
.
Use any
Hewlett-Packard -supported X-Windows server (for example,
Excursion, dtwm , twm , mwm ) that supports Motif.
