Tru64 UNIX Operating System Version 5.0A

SPD 70.70.02

DESCRIPTION

The Compaq Tru64[TM] UNIX Operating System is a 64-bit advanced kernel architecture based on Carnegie-Mellon University’s Mach V2.5 kernel design, with components from Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) 4.3 and 4.4, UNIX System V, and other sources. Tru64 UNIX is the Compaq Computer Corporation implementation of The Open Group’s OSF/1 R1.0, R1.1, and R1.2 technology, and the Motif graphical user interface and programming environment.

Tru64 UNIX provides symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), real-time support, and numerous features to assist application programmers in developing applications that use shared libraries, multithread support, and memory-mapped files. The full features of the X Window System, Version 11, Release 6.3 (X11R6.3) from The Open Group are supported.

Tru64 UNIX complies with other standards and industry specifications, including the The Open Group XPG4 and XTI, POSIX, FIPS, and System V Interface Definition (SVID). By providing support for SVID, Tru64 UNIX supports System V applications. The Tru64 UNIX Operating System is compatible with Berkeley 4.3 programming interfaces. Tru64 UNIX conforms to The Open Group Application Environment Specification (AES), which specifies an interface for developing portable applications that run on a variety of hardware platforms.

SYSTEM MANAGEMENT

Tru64 UNIX System Management (SysMan) includes an easy to use suite of tools for installing, configuring, and managing a Tru64 UNIX system. SysMan provides centralized administration (the sysman command) for all system management tasks. Tru64 UNIX system management provides a set of features for the automation of system installations and configurations.

The SysMan tools and applications provide several user interfaces that allow administrators to manage a Tru64 UNIX system from anywhere:

• A Java based interface for managing over the Web or from a PC

• A graphical interface based on X windows

• A Curses interface for character-cell environments

• A command-line interface for scripting, automation, and for auditing system configurations

SysMan also includes a comprehensive event management mechanism for posting, subscribing, and viewing all system events, including hardware and software.

Installation

Tru64 UNIX can be installed from either a CD-ROM or a remote installation server. Administrators have a choice of full, update, and cloned installations. Installation Services are available for those customers who would like an experienced Compaq Software Specialist to install the software.

Full Installation

The full installation procedure installs Tru64 UNIX onto any supported Alpha system, and uses a wizard-like interface to walk administrators through the required steps. Full installations may repartition the system drives and remove all existing information. During installation, the default file system is the Advanced File System (AdvFS); however, administrators can choose the UNIX file system, if preferred. Administrators can configure the Tru64 UNIX system disks for Logical Storage Manager (LSM) during the initial system installation. Administrators can also select and install Worldwide Language Support software during the initial installation.

Update Installation

The update installation procedure updates the operating system from Tru64 UNIX Version 4.0F or Version 5.0 to Version 5.0A, while preserving appropriate system files and existing user-customized files. The Installation Guide shows the successive update paths to reach if a system is running a version of the operating system other than Version 4.0F or 5.0.

Updating Worldwide Language Support (WLS) software is done automatically during an update installation of the base operating system. It is not necessary to remove WLS software before updating the operating system or to update WLS software as a separate task.

Administrators can invoke the update installation with the optional -u flag to run in an unattended mode. Unattended means that barring any problems with the update, no user interaction is required. The only exception to this is the switching of CD-ROMs if WLS software is being updated. The -u flag builds a kernel with all kernel components, but does not provide the chance to archive obsolete files.

At the beginning of the update installation process, a Tru64 UNIX system will look for the following:

• Layered products that prevent the update from continuing

• Layered products that should be reinstalled after the update

• Fatal and nonfatal file system type conflicts

• Available disk space

System Cloning

Cloning lets administrators take a snapshot of a fully installed and configured system. Later, administrators can automatically install and configure other systems without the need to go through the set of installation and configuration steps. After a system’s configuration has been saved, administrators can apply it manually or automatically to other systems at any time.

System cloning, combined with user-defined scripts, can execute customized scripts during different phases of the installation process, so that administrators can run a completely unattended installation and configuration of a system. Administrators can use cloning for repetitive installations and configurations on multiple systems.

Configuration

To do an initial system configuration after a full installation, SysMan automatically runs Quick Setup the first time administrators log in. Quick Setup determines the configuration utilities that are right for a system, then uses a wizard-like interface to help administrators set up client systems. Administrators can use the resulting system "as is" or customize it using settings from the full-featured configuration applications. Quick Setup is also available from the System Setup menu.

Bootable Tape

Tru64 UNIX supports the Bootable Tape application to create and recover a disk image from a system, so that administrators can restore a system from a directly attached tape device.

System Management Menu (SysMan)

The SysMan Menu provides a framework to easily execute system management tasks. Administrators have a choice of interfaces, including:

• X11-capable display

• Personal computer running Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT

• Character-cell terminal

System Management Station (SMS)

The SysMan Station provides a graphical representation of the system and enables administrators to manage the system from a personal computer. The SysMan Station is a Java tool that is fully integrated with Compaq TruCluster[TM] Server Version 5.0A. SMS allows administrators to remotely manage systems from anywhere: PCs clients, UNIX workstations, or any Alpha system.

The Event Manager

Event Manager provides a centralized means of gathering, distributing, storing, and reviewing event information, regardless of how the events are posted. Event Manager makes event information more accessible and provides a flexible and adaptable event infrastructure. Event Manager’s Application Programming Interface enables any third-party or customer-developed applications to be customized to take advantage of this system data.

Monitoring and Tuning

Tru64 UNIX provides the following monitoring and tuning capabilities:

• Kernel Tuner displays and changes parameters of the kernel subsystem.

• Class Scheduler allows the administrator to prioritize jobs and tasks.

• Process Tuner displays, monitors, and manages system processes. A number of sort and filter options are provided to format the information display.

• Environmental Monitoring monitors the thermal, fan, and redundant power supply of Alpha systems that have prerequisite hardware sensor support. The functionality sets user-defined scripts, temperature levels, collection rate, and shutdown grace period, and can start or stop the environmental monitoring state.

• Collect is a lightweight, highly flexible performance collector. Collect can run continuously 7x24 and manage its own logs. For more information, see the Collect reference page.

Compaq Insight Manager (CIMXE)

Tru64 UNIX provides Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) capabilities through integrating the Compaq Insight Manager Agents, insight_manager(5). Insight Manager enables Web-based device monitoring and fault management of local and remote system hardware and software resources. Administrators can access features from any browser using the Compaq dedicated 2301 HTTP port.

Compaq Insight Manager for Tru64 UNIX includes SNMP-based subagents and WBEM capabilities for presenting SNMP data through any Web browser. The SNMP subagents supply a rich set of Compaq Enterprise MIBs that provide hardware information, status, and statistics of CPU and memory boards, I/O devices, SCSI-based storage devices, Network Interface Cards, and Environmental devices, such as temperature sensors, fans, and power supplies.

Administrators can access the Tru64 UNIX System Management Home Page, System Management Menu, SysMan Station, and the UniCensus Configuration reports easily from any browser using the Compaq dedicated 2301 HTTP port.

Storage Management

Tru64 UNIX Logical Storage Manager (LSM) is an integrated host-based solution for data storage management. Basic LSM functionality, including disk spanning and concatenation, is provided with the base operating system free of charge. Additional features, such as disk striping, mirroring, and a graphical user interface, are available with a separate license. LSM is RAID Advisory Board (RAB) certified for RAID Levels 0 and 1, 0 +1 and 5. See the LAYERED PRODUCTS section of this SPD and the LSM SPD 51.24.xx for more information.

NetWorker provides automated backup and recovery of files on a local system. This SingleServer version is licensed free of charge with Tru64 UNIX and provides automated backup and recovery of the directly attached storage device. Users can purchase the full NetWorker product from Legato Systems, Inc. See the LAYERED PRODUCTS section of this SPD for more information.

Service Tools

Tru64 UNIX provides graphical presentation of the following commands:

• Iostat command (I/O statistics)

• netstat command (network statistics)

• vmstat command (virtual memory statistics)

• who command

• Compaq DECevent is supported using the dia utility, which provides error reporting and binary-to-text translation capabilities. DECevent provides system-directed diagnostic capability for the Compaq AlphaServer[TM] 8200 and 8400 EV6 platforms, the AlphaServer GS60, and the AlphaServer GS140.

• Compaq Analyze is a rules-based hardware fault management diagnostic tool (on selected platforms) that provides error event analysis and translation. The multi-event correlation analysis feature provides the capability to analyze events stored in the system’s event log file. A graphical user interface enables the user to set program and configuration parameters and to review event information.

• UniCensus is a tool used to collect and archive system configuration information. UniCensus uses sys_check to produce an HTML report showing system configuration information, revision levels, storage subsystem configuration, and other information. UniCensus is the collector used by the Compaq Services tool called RCM (Revision and Configuration Management). UniCensus can be configured to transport system configuration information to the RCM server in Compaq Services. It can also be configured to run at system reboot.

• sys_check is a data gathering and reporting tool that gives the current state of a system, including configuration information, microcode information, and Tru64 UNIX parameter settings.

FILE SYSTEMS

The Tru64 UNIX file system architecture is based on the OSF/1 Virtual File System (VFS,) which is based on the Berkeley 4.3 Reno Virtual File System. VFS provides an interface into files regardless of the file system in which the files reside.

Tru64 UNIX supports the file system types described in this section.

Advanced File System (AdvFS)

The Advanced File System is the Compaq journaled, local file system that provides higher availability and greater flexibility than traditional UNIX file systems. AdvFS files belong to filesets (equivalent to traditional file systems) that share a single storage pool called a file domain. Administrators can resize file domains dynamically to allocate or deallocate storage while the system is running, and to set quotas for users, groups, and filesets. Quotas can have hard and soft limits, which specify a period of time that a quota can be exceeded.

Using transaction journaling, AdvFS provides increased file system integrity and recovers file domains in seconds rather than hours after an unexpected restart. The AdvFS defragment utility reduces the number of file extents in a file domain by making files more contiguous, thus improving the read/write performance because less I/O operations are required to access a fragmented file. AdvFS also supports direct I/O, which allows applications to avoid the unified buffer cache (UBC), thus achieving near raw disk performance.

The AdvFS /, /usr, and /var filesets are configured during installation. The system has generous configuration capabilities. Administrators can mount 232-1 filesets and file domains.

A file domain may contain up to 256 volumes with a AdvFS Utilities license. See the Configuration and Tuning guide for volumes per domain, file domain, and fileset recommendations.

• The maximum volume size is 1 TB-512 K.

• The maximum number of files in a fileset is 231. (This number is limited by the length of the tag that is used to uniquely identify a file in a fileset.)

• The maximum size of an AdvFS file and fileset is 16 TB - 512 K (213 * 232), with an 8 K page size and a 31-bit page number.

The disk-structure analysis commands allow the system administrator to examine the low-level structures of files, filesets, and file domains. The verify utility validates domains and can fix a set of known disk corruptions. The salvage utility is useful when, due to hardware or software problems, disk metadata has become corrupt. It recovers the noncorrupted files from the file domains to disk or to tape.

The right to use the Advanced File System is granted by the Tru64 UNIX Operating System license.

AdvFS Utilities is a separately licensed layered product that expands the capabilities of AdvFS as follows:

• Adding more than one volume to a file domain.

• Cloning to perform online backups of active files by making a read-only copy (clone) of an active fileset.

• Performance tuning, such as striping files across multiple volumes to improve read/write performance, balancing to even out the percentage of free space among the volumes of a multivolume file domain, and migration to optimize disk usage.

• Creating a trashcan directory to store files that are deleted.

UNIX File System (UFS)

UFS is compatible with the Berkeley 4.3 Tahoe release. Tru64 UNIX supports up to 2,147,483,647 UNIX File System and Memory File System (MFS) mounts. The max-ufs-mounts attribute controls the maximum number of UFS and MFS mounts. The default value is 1000.

Network File System (NFS)

Tru64 UNIX NFS V2 allows transparent file access over TCP/IP networks. The Network Information System (NIS), formerly Yellow Pages (YP), is provided for centralized system management of files. The automounter service automatically mounts and unmounts NFS file systems. The NFS locking service allows advisory and record locks to be used with remotely mounted files.

Tru64 UNIX provides an NFS V3 server and client protocol implementation in addition to V2. NFS V3 includes 64-bit support for file access, exclusive create semantics, negotiable transfer sizes, safe asynchronous writes, added support for access checking, and other changes designed to increase efficiency and performance. NFS file systems can use either the UDP or TCP transport protocols.

Network Lock Manager (NLM) V4 includes support for files larger than 2 GB. Support for additional over-the-wire error code is also provided. NLM V3 is supported for NFS V2 compatibility.

V2 PC-NFS server support is provided to enable connectivity from PC-NFS V5.1a, 5.1, 4.0, and 3.5 clients.

Memory File System (MFS)

The Tru64 UNIX MFS is a memory-based UFS. The MFS has the same file system structure as the UFS, but resides in virtual memory. No permanent file structures or data are written to disk, so the contents of an MFS file system are lost on reboot, unmount, or power failure. An MFS is useful for temporary files or for read-only files that are loaded into it after it is created.

ISO 9660 Compact Disk File System (CDFS)

The Tru64 UNIX implementation of CDFS is based on ISO 9660, a standard for a volume and file structure for the interchange of information using CD-ROM. Tru64 UNIX CDFS is based on the following levels of ISO 9660:

• Level 2 of Interchange

• Level 1 of Implementation, which enables the user to mount single-volume CD-ROMs that are formatted in compliance with ISO 9660 as a local file system

• List and examine files using standard UNIX utilities and programs

• Read files and directories using the standard POSIX system interface

• NFS export mounted ISO 9660 file systems

• Support the High Sierra Group extensions that provide compatibility with older-format CD-ROMs

• File owner, file group, file permissions

• Additional file types (symbolic links, device special files, named pipes)

• setuid, setgid, and sticky bits

• Hard link counts

• POSIX file names (mixed case names, unstructured names, and longer names than ISO-9660:1988 allows)

• Deep directory hierarchies (greater than eight levels)

• File time stamps

X/Open Preliminary Specification (1991) CD-ROM Support Component (XCDR)

XCDR extensions allow users to examine selected ISO 9660 attributes through defined utilities and shared libraries. A system administrator can substitute different file protections, owners, and file names for CD-ROM files.

CDFS supports the organization of multiple sessions on one CD-ROM volume. The maximum number of CDFS mounts is 512. Note that the contents of all sessions are available as one file system and are not separately available. Users can access DVD disks using the CDFS file system.

File-on-File Mounting File System (FFM)

The File-on-File Mounting File System allows regular, character, or block-special files to be mounted over regular files and is primarily used by the SVR4-compatible system calls fattach and fdetach of a STREAMS-based pipe (or FIFO).

File-Based Pipes

A file-based pipe implementation replaces the socket-based pipe implementation for improved performance.

/proc File System

The SVR4-compatible /proc file system for Tru64 UNIX allows running processes to be accessed and manipulated as files by ordinary system calls: open, close, read, write, seek, and ioctl.

NETWORKING

TCP/IP

Tru64 UNIX allows for TCP/IP network communications over supported network devices. The TCP/IP protocol suite is implemented in the socket framework.

Sockets

Tru64 UNIX provides sockets that are based on the Berkeley UNIX Operating System structure, which provides a framework for I/O over a network.

STREAMS

Tru64 UNIX provides SVR4-compatible STREAMS. Like sockets, STREAMS provides a framework for character I/O to and from user space to kernel networking protocols.

X/Open Transport Interface (XTI)

The X/Open Transport Interface (XTI) is an extension to the System V STREAMS user space interface called Transport Level Interface (TLI). This interface is threadsafe.

Data Link Bridge (DLB)

Tru64 UNIX provides a DLPI-compatible interface into the non-STREAMS (BSD) driver environment. This interface does not support complete DLPI semantics. The DLB interface is the preferred interface for STREAMS modules to access the BSD-based datalink services.

screend

When the system is operating as an IP router, screend provides flexible per-packet access controls for forwarded packets. This can be used as part of a comprehensive network security plan. Tru64 UNIX also provides interface access filtering to reinforce the system security against IP spoofing attacks.

Packetfilter

The Packetfilter software interface allows an application to send and receive packets directly to or from a LAN (Ethernet or FDDI). The Packetfilter provides flexible filtering of incoming packets, so that many such applications can run simultaneously.

The Tru64 UNIX Packetfilter supports two filtering models: the CMU/Stanford model supported in Compaq ULTRIX, and the BSD Packet Filter (BPF), which provides more flexible and efficient filtering. BPF was developed by the University of California, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. The packetfilter pseudo-driver can support up to 255 simultaneous open filters (each filter is usually mapped to one instance of an application program).

Several public domain applications that use the Packetfilter are integrated in Tru64 UNIX, including rarpd, tcpdump, tcpslice, nfswatch, and nfslogsum.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

The SNMP agent allows management of the Internet, FDDI, system resources, and network resources using the SNMP. The agent is extensible, allowing software developers to add MIBs to the agent and to participate in the SNMP.

The SNMP agent contains full SNMP V2.c agents, fully compatible with V1.0 MIB implementations, for managing Internet MIB-2 objects, FDDI objects, and Token Ring objects. Support for AgentX is provided in V5.0A.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

Tru64 UNIX includes a complete DHCP server/client solution for centralizing and automating IP address administration using a graphical interface.

Point-to-Point Connections

The Tru64 UNIX system supports point-to-point connections using Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP) and Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP). The PPP subsystem implements PPP V2.3.1, which supports asynchronous point-to-point connections and IP. It provides authentification with Password Authentification Protocol (PAP) and Cryptographic Authentification Protocol (CHAP).

Open Network Computing (ONC)

Tru64 UNIX supports Open Network Computing V4.2, including Network File System V2 and V3, PCNFSd, Lock Manager, Status Monitor, NFSportmon, Network Information Service (NIS), automount, and user-level RPC.

Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)

The Tru64 UNIX Asynchronous Transfer Mode subsystem supports the ATM Forum's User-Network Interface (UNI) V3.0 and V3.1 specifications, including the Interim Local Management Interface (ILMI) protocol for registration of up to 32 addresses per interface, UNI signaling for point-to-point connections, and best-effort and CBR VCs for AAL5 PDUs. Also, per-VC cell pacing (to limit the rate at which an end-system transmits) is supported.

The ATM subsystem supports Classical IP (RFC 1577), including support for multiple IP subnets, per-VC MTU negotiation, and packetfilter access to data into and out of the host.

LAN Emulation over ATM is supported (Ethernet and IEEE 802.3 frames only), for carrying IP and LAT protocols. Support is based on the ATM Forum V1.0 specification. Packetfilter access is provided to emulated LAN data into and out of the host.

Tru64 UNIX provides limited support for IP switching over ATM, based on the Ipsilon Networks Inc. reference model (RFC 1953 and 1954). Only one IP switching network device is supported per host, and an ATM adapter used for IP switching cannot simultaneously support ATM Forum UNI or ILMI protocols.

The ATM subsystem (except IP switching and PVCs) can be configured with the atmsetup utility to start automatically at boot time. The current form of the atmsetup utility will be replaced in the next major functional release of the operating system with a version that is part of the System Management application suite.

Tru64 UNIX does not support the UNI V3.0 and V3.1 specifications for full ATM Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management Information Bases (MIBs), point-to-multipoint connections, Operations and Maintenance (OAM) flows, VBR VCs, AAL1, AAL3/4, or raw AAL.

Slow Ethernet

Tru64 UNIX supports Slow Ethernet (10Base).

Fast Ethernet

Tru64 UNIX supports Fast Ethernet (IEEE 802.3 100Base-TX) in full and half duplex.

Gigabit Ethernet

Tru64 UNIX supports Gigabit Ethernet IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet Standard, IEEE 802.3x Pause Frame Flow control (X-on/X-off), both symmetric and asymmetric, and is Jumbo frame capable.

Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI)

Tru64 UNIX provides FDDI fiber optic support based on all relevant ANSI and IEEE standards, including SMT revision 7.2.

Token Ring

Tru64 UNIX supports Token Ring (IEEE 802.5) with source routing support for multi-ring networks. Support also includes 4 and 16 MLps over STP and UTP media.

NetRAIN

Tru64 UNIX provides NetRAIN support for Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, FDDI, and ATM controllers (LANE only). NetRAIN allows for failover of communications from one controller to another in the event a fault is detected in the communications path.

IP Multicast

Tru64 UNIX supports the Level 2 end-system IP Multicast functionality, specified in RFC 1112, on Ethernet and FDDI. The implementation provides integrated multicast address management for multi-protocol environments.

The Tru64 UNIX implementation also provides kernel routines for encapsulating IP tunnels to enable wide area IP Multicast routing.

These routines include kernel code from public domain Multicast support Version 3.5 and mrouted (Version 3 Copyright 1989 by the Board of Trustees of Leland Stanford University), which provides the Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP).

Name Services

Tru64 UNIX supports the Domain Name System (DNS) as described in RFC 1034 and RFC 1035, providing a host name and address lookup service for the Internet network. The Tru64 UNIX implementation of the Domain Name System is based on BIND Version 8.1.2. The user can use BIND to supplement the host's database.

Tru64 UNIX also supports the Sun Network Information Service (NIS), formerly known as Yellow Pages (YP). NIS can be used to replace or supplement hosts, aliases, group, networks, password, protocols, rpc, and services databases.

Network Time Protocol (NTP)

Tru64 UNIX provides the Network Time Protocol V3 to synchronize and distribute the time for all machines in a network environment. The time synchronization daemon, xntpd, is used to distribute time to all machines in a network.

Time Synchronization Protocol (TSP)

Tru64 UNIX provides Berkeley's Time Synchronization Protocol to synchronize the time of all machines in a network without ensuring the accuracy of the time that is provided.

Local Area Transport (LAT)

Tru64 UNIX provides a STREAMS-based implementation of the Local Area Transport that serves terminals to one or more service nodes on a local area network (LAN). LAT allows a host to function as both a service node and a server node. It also enables host applications to initiate connections to server ports (designated as application ports) to access remote devices such as printers.

LAT/Telnet Gateway

The LAT/Telnet gateway service supported in Tru64 UNIX provides a gateway from a LAT terminal server to allow connections to TCP/IP nodes using intermediate LAT hosts.

Number of Logins

The following number of logins has been tested:

RLOGIN:  7,043*
Telnet:	12,395*
LAT:	 4,575*

Netscape

Tru64 UNIX includes the Netscape Communicator V4.7 Internet Client World Wide Web browser. The software license for this bundled version of the Netscape Communicator Internet client is included with the Tru64 UNIX base license. Support for several language fonts, such as Japanese, Korean, Unicode, Simplified Chinese, and Western, is included.

Tru64 UNIX also includes the Netscape FastTrack V3.01 Internet World Wide Web server. The software license for this bundled version of the Netscape FastTrack V3.01 is included with the Tru64 UNIX base license.

SECURITY

The Tru64 UNIX Operating System, running Enhanced Security, is designed to meet, and in some cases exceed, the requirements of the C2 evaluation class of DoD 5200.28-STD "Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria," also known as the Orange Book.

Tru64 UNIX supports various configurations and setup scripts, which allow selection of such desired Enhanced Security features as extended passwords, audit, and access control lists (ACLs).

System administrators can choose between command-line interfaces or GUIs.

Network Information Service (NIS) Compatibility

Tru64 UNIX provides support for accessing NIS distributed databases while running Enhanced Security. NIS can also be used to distribute the Enhanced Security protected password database. The number of simultaneous logins allowed depends on the configuration.

Security Integration Architecture

All security mechanisms on Tru64 UNIX are part of the Security Integration Architecture (SIA), which isolates security-sensitive commands from the specific security mechanisms. This eliminates the need to modify the security-sensitive commands for each new security mechanism.

Tru64 UNIX includes the following C2 security features:

• Discretionary Access Controls (DAC) -- Allows users to define how the resources they create can be shared. Optional ACLs provide greater granularity of file system object protection at the individual user level than the default DAC protection. The ACL mechanism is designed to POSIX draft 13 with some draft 15 enhancements.

• Auditing -- Allows users to monitor normal and unauthorized usage of a system with a choice of a GUI or command-line interface.

• Identification and Authentication -- Password length and lifetime are based on the Department of Defense Password Management Guideline (Green Book). Features include extensive login controls, such as automatic account lockout, account vacationing, per terminal settings for delays and maximum consecutive failed logins, password usage history, and system-generated password.

• Object Reuse -- Ensures that the physical storage that is assigned to shared objects or that is released prior to reassignment to another user does not contain data from previous users.

• Integrity -- Allows users to validate the correct operation of hardware, firmware, and software components of the Trusted Computing Base (TCB).

• System Architecture -- A separate execution domain is maintained for the Trusted Computing Base (TCB) components using hardware memory management to protect the TCB while it is executing.

Advanced Printing Software

Advanced Printing Software from Compaq is a new printing system for Tru64 UNIX, developed in collaboration with Xerox and based on PrintXchange technology from Xerox. It is a distributed client/server printing system intended for use in workgroup and enterprise environments. Advanced Printing Software is based on a printing model defined by ISO 10175 and a command set defined by POSIX 1387.4. To provide inter-operation with the default BSD based printing system on Tru64 UNIX, Advanced Printing Software uses inbound and outbound gateways to move print jobs to or from the lpr/lpd print subsystems. Advanced Printing Software supports the printer models included in the hardware tables at the end of this document.

UNIX/ WINDOWS INTEROPERABILITY

Data Access -- Object Database Connection and Java Database Connection (ODBC and JDBC)

• Tru64 UNIX provides the family of INTERSOLV DataDirect software products to enable ODBC and JDBC connectivity for your applications. This is optional software for use in developing and deploying applications and is licensed as part of the Tru64 UNIX operating system license.

• SequeLink ODBC Edition is a universal ODBC client component. DataDirect SequeLink ODBC provides transparent connectivity to almost any type of client, network, server, or database.

• For developers working with Java, JDBC provides Java applications to access data sources and databases across platforms. The SequeLink Java Edition is a universal standards-based implementation of JDBC. It is also flexible in design, providing scaleable connectivity from multivendor client, server, and Web environments to industry- leading relational databases. It is optimized and tuned for the Java environment, extending the functionality and performance of existing systems and easily incorporating new technologies.

Common Object Model (COM) for Tru64 UNIX

COM, the Component Object Model, is middleware that Microsoft developed for the Windows platform. COM implements a binary standard that allows two or more applications to work together, regardless of whether they were written by different vendors, in different languages, at different times, on different platforms running different operating systems. DCOM, the Distributed Component Object Model, extends the COM model and provides applications with a way to interact remotely over a network.

COM for Tru64 UNIX implements Microsoft COM as well as the required underlying Windows capabilities for the Compaq Tru64 UNIX platform. The Compaq implementation provides all the basic functions, libraries, and tools that a COM application in a heterogeneous NT client/Tru64 UNIX server environment requires. Programmers who develop only in Windows NT environments will find the same COM Application Programmer Interface (API) and the same behavior in a heterogeneous Windows client/Tru64 UNIX server environment.

COM for Tru64 UNIX provides traditional COM and DCOM capabilities for applications. These capabilities conform to the Microsoft ActiveX Core Technology Specification. They include:

• MIDL, the Microsoft Interface Definition Language Compiler that is used to create the component object interface.

• The interfaces and APIs defined by Microsoft as those needed to support COM on platforms other than Windows.

• Support for COM capabilities, such as Monikers, OLE Automation, Uniform Data Transfer (UDT), Connectable Objects, and type libraries.

• Multithreaded apartment threading model (formerly known as free threads).

• RPC, Remote Procedure Call, that provides the mechanism for communication across the network.

• Registry, the database of COM components and relevant configuration information, and Registry tools, such as sermon and regsvr, that allow the modification of Registry contents.

• Security in the form of call security that allows a client or server to apply an appropriate security level to method calls, and the Security Support Provider Interface (SSPI) standard that defines security providers, which can be accessible to DCOM applications. Microsoft NT uses the Windows NT Distributed Security Provider (also called NTLM SSP). COM for Tru64 UNIX supports "pass-through" NTLM SSP calls.

• Internationalization capability, including UNICODE support of wide characters.

• Error-handling conventions that allow COM objects in different environments to share status information.

Windows 2000 Single Sign-On

Tru64 UNIX allows Windows users to authenticate to Tru64 UNIX using their Windows 2000 username and password. Secure authentication between the Tru64 UNIX system and Active Directory occurs using Kerberos technology. UNIX user account information can be stored in the LDAP-enabled Active Directory, to give administrators a single user account directory spanning Tru64 UNIX and Windows 2000. Administrators can also manage the additional Tru64 UNIX attributes using the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in extensions provided with this kit.

Additional software (part of option software) can be loaded onto the client system from the RIS server system after the client has been installed. BOOTP is the boot protocol used to initiate the installations. Because of the high bandwidth requirements, RIS is supported only in local area network environments that use Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, FDDI, and Token Ring network addresses.

A RIS client can be booted from the following interfaces:

• Internal Ethernet

• The PMAD TURBOchannel Ethernet option card

• The DE422 and DE425 EISA Ethernet option cards

• The DE203, DE204, and DE205 ISA Ethernet option cards

• The DE434, DE435, and DE436, DE500 PCI Ethernet option cards

• The DEFEA EISA family of FDDI option cards

• The DEFPA PCI family of FDDI option cards

• The DEFTA TURBOchannel family of FDDI option cards

• The DETRA Token Ring option card

Firmware Requirements for RIS Option Cards

Console firmware and all option firmware in the DMS or RIS server and in every client system must be compatible with the version of Tru64 UNIX system software that will be running on that system.

See the Release Notes Overview included with the Console Firmware
CD-ROM, which is packaged along with the Tru64 UNIX Operating System
software kit (QA-6ADAA-H8), to determine the firmware version
compatibilities. 

Dataless Configurations

The Tru64 UNIX Server Extensions include support to install and operate systems in a dataless configuration. A server system maintains the root, /usr, and /var file systems for all client systems. The server maintains one copy of root for each client. The /usr file system is exported read-only and is shared by all clients registered in the environment. Each client has its own /var file system. Dataless clients access the file systems maintained on the server utilizing NFS. A minimum of one disk drive is required on each client for the purposes of dumping and swapping.

The Dataless Management Utility (dmu) enables the server to register and manage the software areas used by Tru64 UNIX dataless clients. BOOTP is the protocol used to boot the clients and mount the remote file systems.

Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP)

Symmetric multiprocessing enables systems with two or more processors to execute the same copy of the operating system, access common memory, and execute instructions simultaneously. The SMP functionality fully exploits the additional compute capabilities of multiple processors. Capabilities include:

• Concurrent multiple threads - Multiple threads from the same or different tasks can run concurrently on different processors.

• Process affinity - Allows binding a process to a specific processor.

• Unattended reboot - Occurs on a hard failure of a nonboot processor, the operating system tags the failing CPU and reboots the system without enabling the defective CPU.

• Stop/Start CPU - Provides the ability to stop and start a specified nonboot processor.

• Processor sets - Provide the ability to dedicate a process, or set of processes, to a specific processor or set of processors. This can also be used to partition the available processors among a set of users.

SOFTWARE LICENSING

Tru64 UNIX Operating System software is furnished under the licensing of Compaq Computer Corporation's Standard Terms and Conditions.

There are five different types of Tru64 UNIX Operating System licenses:

• Operating System Base License (QL-MT4A*-6*)
• Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) Extension to Base License (QL-MT4A9-6*)
• Tru64 UNIX Hardware Partitioning License (QM-MT4AA-AA)
• Concurrent Use Licenses (QL-MT7AM-3*)
• Unlimited Interactive User Licenses (QL-MT7A*-AA)

The following sections describe each type of license.

Operating System Base License
(QL-MT4A*-6* LMF Product Name: OSF-BASE)

This license grants the right to noninteractive use of the file, application, batch, print, and compute services of Tru64 UNIX Operating System on a single processor.

This license also authorizes up to two concurrent interactive users of the system. An interactive user, either a person or device, is one that is logged in to a Tru64 UNIX processor or is interactively using the operating system software by means other than a login. The two interactive users authorized as part of the Operating System Base License are additive with Concurrent Use License quantities, but may not be separated from the Operating System Base License.

In addition to the two interactive users, login as root is authorized for system management purposes only. If a Tru64 UNIX Base License is not registered and activated using the LMF, then login by root only is permitted for system management purposes.

The Operating System Base License is a prerequisite for Concurrent Use Licenses, Unlimited Interactive User Licenses, Hardware Partitioning Licenses, and SMP Extensions to Base Licenses.

Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP)
Extension to Base License
(QL-MT4A9-6* LMF Product Name: OSF-BASE)

SMP Extensions extend the Operating System Base License to enable symmetric multiprocessing capability on those Tru64 UNIX systems supporting SMP. SMP Extensions to Base are permanently tied to the Operating System Base License and may not be separated from the Operating System Base License if an SMP board is removed from the system.

One SMP Extension License is needed for each active processor in the SMP system that is added to the initial processor authorized by the Operating System Base License.

SMP Extensions grant the right to use the same version of the Operating System software as permitted by the corresponding Operating System Base License at the time when the SMP Extension is installed.

Tru64 UNIX Hardware Partitioning License
(QM-MT4AA-AA)

A Hardware Partition extends the Operating System Base License to allow use of a copy of the Tru64 UNIX Operating System in a static hardware partition on systems supporting this feature. The Tru64 UNIX Base License provides the right to enable Tru64 UNIX in a single hardware partition. A Tru64 UNIX Hardware Partition License is required for each additional Tru64 UNIX hardware partition within the same system. For example, a system divided into two (2) Tru64 UNIX partitions requires one (1) Tru64 UNIX Base License and one (1) Tru64 UNIX Hardware Partition License.

Concurrent Use Licenses
(QL-MT7AM-3* LMF Product Name: OSF-USR)

An Operating System Base License is a prerequisite for Concurrent Use Licenses on the same system.

These licenses grant the right to interactive use of the Tru64 UNIX Operating System. The Concurrent Use Licenses are available in various quantities, which can be combined to match any total desired.

Multiple user licenses of the same or different quantities may be installed and used together on a given system to authorize system use by the sum of their quantities. These user licenses authorize users in addition to the two users authorized as part of the Operating System Base License. Concurrent Use Licenses are redesignatable and can be installed and used only on a single Tru64 UNIX system at a time.

An interactive user, either a person or device, is one that is logged in to a Tru64 UNIX processor or is interactively using the operating system software by means other than a login.

Unlimited Interactive User Licenses
(QL-MT7A*-AA LMF Product Name: OSF-USR)

An Operating System Base License is a prerequisite for an Unlimited Interactive User License for use on the same system.

This license grants the right to use the Tru64 UNIX Operating System by an unlimited number of interactive users on a system.

An Unlimited Interactive User License grants the right to use software versions authorized under the Operating System Base License in effect at the time of the grant of the Unlimited Interactive User License.
