OpenVMS v8.4 CDs

A.W.R — Wed, 23 Mar 2011 13:13:38 GMT

Hi,

I have a number of systems with HP OpenVMS v8.3-1H1 on covered by an HP software contract. I have not received any media update for OpenVMS v8.4. I was told I had to request this separately, or that I could download it from ITRC.

If anybody can advise how I do this it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Andrew

You want the Software Update Manager

Remind me to show you the software update servers I'm running here sometime. Staged deployments across multiple clients and multiple servers, with either automatic or optional deployments and related policy management, and with the ability to cache updates and to test and deploy before rolling out the changes en-mass. (Alas no, this is not VMS.)
