HP UX V 8.0

[Florian Heigl (new acc)]

Hey,

you might find NetBSD a well suited current OS for the kind of hardware anything that 8.x actually worked on.

My friend, yes I need the HP UX V. 8.0, model 1991, Infelizment reaching the conclusion that was not found.

>we have a device that runs on HP-UX 8.0,

What type of computer was this?
If not a computer per se, perhaps Agilent may know?

[Olivier Masse]

Honestly, I doubt anyone will be able to help you getting 8.0.

If you're talking here about an old workstation that runs a manufacturing device on the shop floor, better call its vendor, assuming they're still there, to get an upgrade done.

My friend, good afternoon, my need would be for the factory floor, put the manufacturer in Germany do not provide more guarantees or support.

yeah, but do they have a modern (comparable) replacement)?

At this point, you're going to need new hardware AND software. You're not talking about support....you need to replace it with something that will do the same job.

I mean really, this is not the kind of thing that you ignore and forget about for two decades. Wake up ten years later like Rumplestilskin and freak out because the whole world is different, and your still living on a 8 bit Motorola CPU.

>you can give more informations about this device?

I was asking you what the device was.

hmm....sounds like it *might* be some kind of Seimen's controller, running on 705/710/720...which would make it 8.05 and very early PA-RISC.

in any event, you might see if the OEM makes a replacement / upgrade controller. If you can't find a replacement, you could wind up replacing not on the controller, but potentially whatever it *controlled* as well.
