Re: 10 year uptime of VMS cluster for Amsterdam Police
That deserves more than just credit due to effective management, it truly warrants global publicity, most especially to those who make the strategic decisions in public and commercial organisations.
Has any other platform ever come even close to achieving this ? I suspect probably not.
OpenVMS for ever... :-)

Re: 10 year uptime of VMS cluster for Amsterdam Police
Sincere congratulations!
This is what computing business should
be about.
Good solutions should never be be based
on reboots :)
My first four years in IT were devoted to VMS from 1986 to 1990 (PDP-11, MicroVaxen, Vax 750, 780 and similar).
Digital Equipment Corporation provided excellent support at the time.
Whilst I love Unix and Linux (dealing with thme for the last 22 years), I still have
very fond memories of VMS.
You are in Amsterdam, so good beer should
not be a problem to find :) Enjoy the
celebration.

Re: 10 year uptime of VMS cluster for Amsterdam Police
To get a system that can work continuously for years, you need a system that is prepared to handle all kinds of failures. It is not something you can really add into the system by just installing some magic product: it must be taken into account at every level, from the fundamentals of server room environment to the internals of the application software and administration procedures.
Your people have obviously understood that and made it a reality. The results speak for themselves.

Re: 10 year uptime of VMS cluster for Amsterdam Police
This entry comes after the cutoff date Jan set in his original posting, but I didn't want to give Murphy a chance :-)
Happy celebrations,
Hans.
