The minimum supported system memory for this application running in a standalone DECwindows environment with both the client and server executing on that same system is 6 MB. However, the use of this software in conjunction with increased memory capability improves performance. Disk Space Requirements (Block Cluster Size = 1): Disk space required for 7,500 blocks installation: (3,750K bytes) Disk space required for 6,378 blocks minimum single use: (3,265K bytes) 2 DEC SoftPC for VMS, Version 2.2 SSA 32.18.00-A Disk space required for 28,818 blocks typical use: (14,754K bytes) These counts refer to the disk space required on the system disk. The sizes are approximate; actual sizes may vary depending on the user's system environment, configuration, and software options. OPTIONAL HARDWARE The software can use a local floppy disk drive with the follow- ing restrictions: o RX33 - Read/write high density only. Note: RX33 is not sup- ported on machines with RQDX3 controllers. o RX23 - Read/write high density. Read only low density. CLUSTER ENVIRONMENT This layered product is fully supported when installed on any valid and licensed VAXcluster* configuration without restric- tions. The HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS sections of this product's Software Product Description and System Support Addendum detail any special hardware required by this product. * V5.x VAXcluster configurations are fully described in the VAXcluster Software Product Description (29.78.xx) and in- clude CI, Ethernet and Mixed Interconnect configurations. SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS For Systems Using Terminals (No DECwindows Interface): VMS Operating System V5.3 - V5.4 For Workstations Running DECwindows: VMS Operating System V5.3 - V5.4 (and the necessary components of VMS DECwindows) 3 DEC SoftPC for VMS, Version 2.2 SSA 32.18.00-A This product may run in either of the following ways: o Stand-alone execution - running the X11 display server and the client application on the same machine. o Remote execution - running the X11 display server and the client application on different machines. VMS DECwindows is part of the VMS Operating System but must be installed separately. Installation of VMS DECwindows gives you the option to install any or all of the following three components: o VMS DECwindows Compute Server (Base kit; includes runtime support) o VMS DECwindows Device Support o VMS DECwindows Programming Support For stand-alone execution, the following DECwindows components must be installed on the machine: o VMS DECwindows Compute Server o VMS DECwindows Device Support For remote execution, the following DECwindows components must be installed on the machine: Server Machine o VMS DECwindows Compute Server o VMS DECwindows Device Support Client Machine o VMS DECwindows Compute Server o VMS DECwindows Device Support VMS Tailoring 4 DEC SoftPC for VMS, Version 2.2 SSA 32.18.00-A For VMS V5.x systems, the following VMS classes are required for full functionality of this layered product: o VMS Required Saveset o Network Support For more information on VMS classes and tailoring, refer to the VMS Operating System Software Product Description (SPD 25.01.xx). GROWTH CONSIDERATIONS The minimum hardware/software requirements for any future ver- sion of this product may be different from the minimum require- ments for the current version.
