Application Transition tools
The following transition tools provide support for
assessing and planning your custom code transition efforts:
- Alpha Environment Software Translator (AEST)—a utility that
translates executable and shareable OpenVMS AlphaServer system images
into functionally equivalent images that run on OpenVMS on Integrity
servers. A translated image is an OpenVMS Integrity server image
containing both AlphaServer system code translated into Integrity server
code, as well as the original OpenVMS AlphaServer system image.
To Download this translator please visit http://h71000.www7.hp.com/openvms/products/omsva/omsais.html
- VAX Environment Software Translator (VEST)—a utility that translates
executable and shareable OpenVMS VAX images into functionally equivalent
images that run on OpenVMS AlphaServer systems. A translated image is an
OpenVMS AlphaServer system image containing both VAX code translated into AlphaServer systems code,
as well as the original OpenVMS VAX image.

- Translated Image Environment (TIE)—a utility that provides the run-time
environment for translated image execution.
- PL/I to C/C++—programming language conversion tools and services
provided by Software Resources International (SRI). For more information
read the translation services overview.
- PointSecure Migration Advisor—PointSecure, working
with HP OpenVMS, has created a tool called Migration Advisor that aids in collecting information about your
current OpenVMS system environment. For the Migration Advisor FAQ, click here or for a quick overview, click here. Migration Advisor can be downloaded from PointSecure at
http://www.pointsecure.com/products/MigrationAdvisor.aspx.
- Kednos PL/I Itanium Solution—Kednos Enterprises has released their PL/I Run-Time Library for supporting Translated Images on OpenVMS I64. This is the only way to get your OpenVMS VAX or Alpha PL/I software running in an OpenVMS I64 environment.
This software product is a port of the OpenVMS Alpha PL/I Run-TIme Library to OpenVMS I64. Its purpose is to provide run-time support for translated PL/I images. The RTL supports images originally compiled and linked under OpenVMS Alpha that have subsequently been translated for execution on OpenVMS I64 using the AEST translator from HP's OpenVMS Migration Software for Alpha to Integrity Servers (OMSAIS).
The Native IPF PL/I Run-Time Library for Translated Images is available for download on the Kednos website: http://www.kednos.com/
