V5.1 732 alpha release

[Nick Langdon]

I've been asked to upgrade our Alpha server 1200 to 5.1B. Its currently running V5.1 732 alpha.

Can anyone tell me where I can get 5.1B from?

Cheers

upgradepath as written here in the forum:
5.1 -> 5.1A -> 5.1B depending if cluster or not.

The kit is available from HP or do you think it is shareware or free?

cheers for the info.

Thing is that I have never used an Alpha box in my life..

but each version of Tru64 is delivered with full documentation and if you are in doubt open a call within the HP support center.

I'm just wondering how to update a system without knowledge of the OS and reading documentation. So it seems not very important....

Well I have just found out that our Dec Alpha's are not under support any more.

So i'm in the process of finding out how much it will cost to sort this out.
