7-3_2 Software Products Library

Where/How can I get the SPL with the Layered Products CD for 7-3_2?

Actually, I just need DECPrint Supervisor 2.5 but I don't think my Service Agreement will let me just download it.

Thanks!

CD distribution. With that we also get a cover letter which gives us a site with account & password to download.

If you are covered under a software maintenance then you can probably contact HP rep and see about getting a download access.

I think we went cheap and just got the 'license to use' agreement.

Do you have any idea about what it costs to just purchase the one-time quarterly SPL?

Thanks!

WOW!

I just got the quote from our HP folks.

$963 for a one time set of the SPL CD's.

Anyone know if we can pay for just the download of DCPS 2.5?

I remember back when it was only about $500.
Fewer CDs then, no doubt.

Now you know why they don't let just anyone
download this stuff.

Most likely, a request-for-kit on comp.os.vms
would be productive (at lower cost).

Not mentioning any names, but resellers and some auction sites often carry media kits.

I got some excellent assistance getting what I needed.

We do have a license-to-use, but I guess not a license-to-have.. :)

Thanks everybody!

Mike,

Can you share what you found out, either here or email me at goodman@accuwx.com ?

We also have a license for DPS but need the distribution.

I have one, but it's personal.

I certainly will. I knew accuweather used a lot of VMS systems.

I will send you the info.
