In 1986, DEC added VAXclustering support to their MicroVAX minicomputers, running over Ethernet instead of special-purpose hardware. While not giving the high-availability advantages of the CI hardware, these ”Local Area VAXclusters” provided an attractive expansion path for buyers of low-end minicomputers. Later versions of OpenVMS (V5.0 and later) supported “mixed interconect” VAXclusters (using both CI [...]

The application ran on terminal with plaintext 24×80. The first version was able to hyperlinking between files. ENQUIRE was written in the Pascal programming language and implemented on a Norsk Data NORD-10 under SINTRAN III and version 2 was later ported to MS-DOS and to VAX/VMS. ==Further Reading * Adapted from the Wikipedia article ENQUIRE, [...]
DECtape, originally called Microtape, was a magnetic tape data storage medium used with many Digital Equipment Corporation computers, including the PDP-6, PDP-8, LINC-8, PDP-10, PDP-11, PDP-12, and the PDP-15. VAX/VMS support for it was implemented but did not become an official part of the product. DECtapes were 3/4 inch wide and formatted into blocks of [...]
The original version was written at the University of Oklahoma by Robert Alan Koeneke and Jimmey Wayne Todd, after they became hooked on ”Rogue” but could not run it on the VAX-11/780 minicomputer to which they had access. Version 1.0 was written in VMS Pascal and completed in the summer of 1983. From around 1985 [...]
Both Red Hat and Oracle have developed clustering software for Linux. OCFS2, the Oracle Cluster File System was added to the official Linux kernel with version 2.6.16, in January 2006. The alpha-quality code warning on OCFS2 was removed in 2.6.19. Red Hat’s cluster software, including their DLM and Global File System was officially added to [...]
“China red” is another name for the pigment vermilion, which is the traditional red pigment of Chinese art. Chinese name chops are printed with a red cinnabar paste, and vermilion (or cinnabar) is the pigment used in Chinese red lacquer. Cinnabar also has significance in Taoist culture, and was regarded as the color of life [...]
Lynx was a product of the Distributed Computing Group within Academic Computing Services of the University of Kansas, and was initially developed in 1992 by a team of students at the university (Lou Montulli, Michael Grobe and Charles Rezac) as a hypertext browser used solely to distribute campus information as part of a ”Campus-Wide Information [...]
* In the early 1990s DEC produced their own flavor of UNIX called ULTRIX which supported TCP/IP. Almost as a skunk works project, they produced a layered product for VMS called UCX (Ultrix Communications Extensions) which later evolved into “TCPIP Services for OpenVMS”. * The Telnet Library can be used for other protocol transfers like [...]
The X.Org implementation serves as the canonical implementation of X. Due to liberal licensing, a number of variations, both free and open source and proprietary, have appeared. Commercial UNIX vendors have tended to take the open source implementation and adapt it for their hardware, usually customizing it and adding proprietary extensions. | |- | |} [...]
Interactive access to the Oracle Rdb can be by SQL (Structured Query Language), RDO (Relational Database Operator), or both. High level languages usually access Oracle-Rdb by: #embedding RDO statements in the source file then running it through a precompiler #:(example: “file.RCO” is pre-compiled into “file.COB”) #embedding SQL statements in the source file then running it [...]
