These components, along with the op- erating system, provide uniform services that enable applications to be distributed in heterogeneous client/server environments.

Memory Requirements The minimum supported memory for installation of Compaq NAS Produc- tion Server 400 for OpenVMS Alpha Systems, with all components and sub- components installed, is 32 MB. The performance and memory usage of Compaq NAS Production Server 400 for OpenVMS Alpha and applications based on it are particularly sen- sitive to system configuration. Full configuration of all subcompo- nents may require memory in excess of the minimum quoted. Additional memory may also be required based on system loading and usage patterns of the components. More or less memory may be required depending on whether clients and servers execute on the same system or on different systems. Additional memory may also improve performance of one or more components.

The sizes are approximate; actual sizes may vary depending on the customer's system environment, configuration, and software options. For example, actual disk space required may be less if the customer does not in- stall some components or subcomponents. Customers may require addi- tional disk space to create or expand component databases or to cre- ate user files. SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS OpenVMS Alpha Operating System Version 7.1 or higher version.
