           o  VAXstation II, VAXstation 2000, VAXstation 3100, VAXs-
              tation 3200/3500, and VAXstation 3520/3540, VAXstation

              3800/3900, VAXserver 3100 series

           o  VAX 4000 model 300

           Note: The above class of processors has been tested and qual-
           ified by RSM engineering to supported the ISL process for
           VMS.

           The VAX-11/782 processor is not supported by the VMS Oper-
           ating System V5.0 or later.

           Other Hardware Required:

           As required to support DECnet.

           Disk Space Requirements (Block Cluster Size = 1):

           Disk space required      28,000 blocks
           for installation:
                                    (14,336 Kbytes)

           Disk space required      19,000 blocks
           for use (permanent):
                                    (9,728 Kbytes)

           In addition to the above, disk space will be used to store
           SDS libraries, backup files, and associated recordkeeping
           information.

           Note: Each copy of the VMS Operating System V5.0 requires
           approximately 100,000 blocks. Applications can vary in size
           from an estimated 1,000 to 60,000 blocks.

           RSM Server software also includes installing the DNS Client
           software.

           Disk space required      1,400 blocks
           for installation:
                                    (716 Kbytes)

           Disk space required      500 blocks
           for use (permanent):
                                    (256 Kbytes)

           ULTRIX Client

           Disk space required      100 Kbytes (VAX)
           for installation:
                                    300 Kbytes (RISC)

           Disk space required      275 Kbytes (VAX)
           for use (permanent):
                                    470 Kbytes (RISC)

           Temporary disk space     1.2 Mbytes (RISC)
           required during SDS
           operations:
                                    830 Kbytes (VAX)

           These counts refer to the disk space required on the sys-
           tem disk. The sizes are approximate; actual sizes may vary
           depending on the user's system environment, configuration,
           and software options selected.

           VMS Server

           This layered product is fully supported when installed on
           any valid and licensed VAXcluster* configuration with the
           following restriction: the Initial System Load is performed
           from a single node, chosen during product configuration, which
           enables service to receive boot requests.

           The HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS sections of this product's Soft-
           ware Product Description and System Support Addendum detail
           any special hardware required by the product.

           VMS Client

           This layered product is fully supported when installed on
           any valid and licensed VAXcluster* configuration without re-
           strictions. The HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS sections of this prod-
           uct's Software Product Description and System Support Ad-
           dendum detail any special hardware required by this prod-
           uct.

           The RSM Server must be licensed on all members of the VAX-
           cluster system that share the cluster alias.

           o  V5.x VAXcluster configurations are fully described in the
              VAXcluster Software Product Description (29.78.xx) and
              include CI, Ethernet, and Mixed Interconnect configura-
              tions.

           SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

           Distributed Name Service (DNS) (SPD 28.79.xx) V1.0 - V2.0
           must be installed within the network and accessible, via DEC-
           net, from RSM Server nodes.

           RSM Clients require that there be at least one RSM Server
           in the network.
