Block Space Requirements (Block Cluster Size = 1):
    
Processor Restriction

A TK50 Tape Drive is required for stand-alone MicroVAX 2000 and     
VAXstation 2000 systems.                                            

Disk space required for installation:              7500  blocks
                                               (3840K bytes)

Disk space required for use (permanent):     4000 blocks
                                             (2048K 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.
     
Memory Requirements for DECwindows Support
 
The minimum supported memory for this application running in a 
standalone DECwindows environment with both the client and server
executing on that same system is 9M b.

Optional Statement

The performance and memory usage of DECwindows applications are
particularly sensitive to system configuration. Less memory may
be required on the client system (the system where the software
is installed and executed) if the server (the component that displays
the application) resides on another system. More memory may be 
required on a system with several applications running or may
be desirable to improve the performance of an application.

OPTIONAL HARDWARE

If the DEC GKS V4.0 product, or runtime system is installed, the 
DDIF(tm) Graphics Hardcopy converter can be used to generate the 
Color and Monochrome Sixel formats and the Hewlett Packard Graphics 
Language (HPGL(r) format.  For a list of output devices supporting
those formats, please see the DEC GKS for VMS V4.0 SPD.

CLUSTER ENVIRONMENT
        
This layered product is fully supported when installed on any valid and 
licensed VAXcluster* configuration without restrictions.  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 include CI, Ethernet, and Mixed
  Interconnect configurations.

For more information on VMS classes and tailoring, refer to the VMS Operating 
System Software Product Description (SPD 25.01.xx).
    
OPTIONAL SOFTWARE

Certain versions of these products depend upon a specific version of the
operating system.  Please see the System Software Addendum of the product 
in question to determine which version you require.

DEC GKS for VMS	V4.0 or
DEC GKS for VMS V4.0 (Runtime-only)

If the DEC GKS V4.0 product, or runtime system is installed, the DDIF Graphics
Hardcopy converter can be used to generate the HPGL(tm), Color Sixel and
Monochrome Sixel formats.  Please see the DEC GKS V4.0 SPD for a list of
output devices that support these formats.  If DEC GKS V4.0 or the runtime
system is not installed, the DDIF Graphics Hardcopy converter will not
function.
