     8000

     Processor Restrictions

     A TK50 Tape Drive is required for standalone MicroVAX 2000 and
     VAXstation 2000 systems.

     Other Hardware Required:

     Mass storage with a minimum of 12,000 disk blocks for VAX DATA-
     TRIEVE system software.

     Block Space Requirements (Block Cluster Size = 1):

     Disk space required for      17,000 blocks
     installation:
                                  (8.70M bytes)

     Disk space required for      12,000 blocks
     use (permanent):
                                  (6.14M 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 8M bytes.

     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 where it may be desirable to improve the performance of an
     application.

     OPTIONAL HARDWARE

     Any device supported by the prerequisite software.

     Graphics can be displayed on VT125, VT240, VT241, VT330, and
     VT340 terminals only. For users with DECwindows, graphics can be
     displayed in DECterm windows.

     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.
