COMPAQ OpenVMStm VAX Software Products Library--September 2001 AV-R5FBT-TE Welcome to this month's OpenVMS VAX Software Products Library Package. The September 2001 package includes the changes described in the following sections. Announcing a Software Products Library Website You are invited to visit our new website, http://www1.sqp.com. Special web versions of the Software Products Library Master Indexes have been linked to underlying product information. If you are looking for detail of what’s shipping or ship history for previous product versions, this site can help. Your comments regarding our new website are welcomed: ODLCDROM@Compaq.com Coming Soon New Packaging for the Software Products Library In our continuing effort to provide quality to our customers, the Software Products Library will be delivered in new packaging in the near future. The Software Products Library CDs and documentation will be shipped in a new, sturdier box. A separate removable folder will be provided for the Online Documentation Library CDs and cover letters or “Getting Started” documentation. This folder will ship in the Software Products Library box if you have ordered the combined binaries and online documentation Library package, or it will ship separately if you have ordered only the Online Documentation Library. We hope you will be happy with these changes. System Tools CD The System Tools CD that is included with the Software Products Library contains diagnosis and supporting software, for example WEBES and DECevent, for use by Customers, Compaq’s service engineers and Compaq’s Authorized Service Provider service engineers. The software and associated documentation on this CD are for use on systems that have hardware warranty, a service contract, or service obligation. The System Tools CD and associated web pages may contain new diagnosis software that is applicable to the system and should be reviewed for the most recent updates to the diagnosis tools. http://www.support.compaq.com/svctools/ © 2001 Compaq Computer Corporation Removals from the September 2001 Software Products Library The products below will reach End-of-Service-Life by the September release, and are planned for removal due to their retirement.

Accordingly, License Subscription and Software Update Distribution Services will no longer be available for these products. However, because we recognize the investment customers have made in these products, and each customer’s need to move to new technology and/or solutions at his/her own pace, Compaq offers this new service. Mature Product Support assures that customers can continue to obtain high-quality support for selected products. You can purchase Mature Product Support with Sustaining Engineering as an addendum to your service contracts and cancel it when it is no longer required. Additional licenses and media kits will continue to be available for purchase. Your local Compaq Services Sales Specialist can provide you with more information about Mature Product Support, as well as the comprehensive suite of support offerings available from Compaq. For more information on Mature Products Support visit the Software Support Services for Legacy Software Web page at http://www.compaq.com/services/software/ss_mature.html After products have entered the Mature Product Support Program they will continue to ship on the Software Products Libraries. 3 Software Compatibility Matrix The Software Compatibility Matrix shows the minimum and maximum Operating System versions supported by each software product on the Software Products Library.
