License Problems on DS20L

[Steven Guberman]

The Tru64 literature states that the licenses for OSF-BASE and SMX are QL-MT4A*-6* and QL-MT4A9-6* respectively. Does anyone know what the asterisks are for the DS20L? I have 65 units of OSF-BASE from older licenses and lmf indicates that this is insufficient for a DS20L with 2 processors. Does anyone know how many units are needed?

These licenses are difficult to find on the web. Any suggestions?

I know nothing, but on VMS there's a
SHOW LICNSE /UNIT_REQUIREMENTS
(or /CHARGE_TABLE) which reveals all (more or
less):

Thanks to John Manger for the link that led to the answer. The link shows that the DS20L needs 75units for OSF-BASE. The license for OSF-BASE is QL-MT4AE-64 and for SMP is QL-MT4A9-6M.
