HP OpenVMS Systems

Transfer (duplication) of license for testing?

» close window

The Question is:

 
I have two Alphaserver systems.  One is a Alphaserver 8400 running OpenVMS
and one is a Alphaserver 4100 running Digital Unix.   The 8400 is a
production system that I'd rather not bring down for extensive testing.  The
4100 is lightly used and generally
available for my "abuse".
 
Question:  Can I legally and easily use the 4100 as a temporarily OpenVMS
test system for Y2K?  If so, please let me know how to handle the license
issue.
 
 

The Answer is :

 
  Please contact the Compaq Customer Support Center for assistance
  with licensing and license-specific issues -- in general, this
  sort of transfer and parallel use requires at least a temporary
  license be acquired and registered for the AlphaServer 4100, but
  this can vary based on local contractual details and potential
  software licensing agreement differences.
