The planning and design modules address environment assessment and high-level planning.
The high-level plans are used when entering the design phase, where more specific
details on how the transition will be conducted are defined.
The following table lists the OpenVMS VAX / AlphaServer systems to OpenVMS Integrity servers transition modules that are
currently available:
Platform Infrastructure
|
High-level planning information and recommendations
to assess efforts to transition the platform
infrastructure, including servers, operating
systems, storage, and tape devices |
Custom Code
|
High-level planning and design information
and recommendations to assess efforts
to transition custom-code applications (addresses programming-related transition issues) |
Packaged Applications
|
Planning and design information and recommendations
to help assess efforts to transition packaged
applications from independent software vendors
(ISVs)
|

Objectives:
- Provide method and framework to approach transition
planning and design
- Provide the means to begin to gauge level of effort and
transition duration
- Save time and effort in planning and designing the transition to HP Integrity servers
- Help identify the areas within each module that require
further planning or design, and those that do not pertain
to the transition
- Help define a customized plan for those areas that require
further planning and design
To get the most from these transition modules:
- Be familiar with long term business and technical goals
- Be familiar with the current hardware and operating system
environment (platform infrastructure)
- Be familiar with the OpenVMS application development environment, and
any custom-code applications
- Be familiar with current ISV packaged applications, if
applicable
- Understand the current overall database design and implementation; database
usage, characteristics, and resource demands; and database
access points and dependencies
- Understand the current overall architectural implementation
- Be aware of any system design goals that were used in the current
implementation
- Be aware of any system design goals that are desired for the
target platform
