The Question is: How do I convert the VAX-VMS queue manager to the new supplied with version 6.2 The Answer is : OpenVMS VAX V6.2 has no choice but to run using the new queue manager. The only OpenVMS VAX releases where the queue manager was selectable were A5.5, A5.5-1, A5.5-2HW (-2HW was an early -2) A5.5-2, and A5.5-2H4. These older releases used the old queue manager, and the conversion from these to the equivalent V5.5, V5.5-1, V5.5-2HW, V5.5-2, and V5.5-2H4 converted over to the new queue manager. The queue manager conversion uses the tool: SYS$UPDATE:VMS$UPGRADE_A55_V55.COM From the OpenVMS VAX V6.0 upgrade documentation: o Before you can upgrade to OpenVMS VAX Version 6.0, your system must be running at least Version V5.5 of the VMS operating system. For example, you can upgrade a system disk to Version 6.0 of the OpenVMS VAX operating system from any of the following versions (or related hardware releases): VMS Version V5.5 VMS Version V5.5-1 VMS Version V5.5-2 You cannot upgrade to OpenVMS VAX Version 6.0 from a VMS Version A5.5, A5.5-1, or A5.5-2 system. To convert an A5.5 system to a Version V5.5 system, do the following: 1. Log in to the SYSTEM account. 2. Enter the following command to execute the SYS$UPDATE:VMS$UPGRADE_A55_V55.COM command procedure: $ @SYS$UPDATE:VMS$UPGRADE_A55_V55 3. Answer YES to the following question: Do you wish to convert queues now ? (YES,NO,ABORT) YES 4. When the command procedure completes, reboot your system. You can now upgrade to OpenVMS VAX Version 6.0.
