Information Access SQL/iX
HP 3000 Requirements
Access SQL/iX runs on HP 3000 Series 900 computers using DTCs over a
direct or modem connection or LANICs over a LAN connection.
Hardware Requirements
Be sure your system meets the following requirements before you install
Access SQL/iX.
Minimum Memory.
Access SQL/iX will operate with the minimum recommended memory for the
version of MPE/iX you are running, plus the minimum additional memory
needed for network installation.
Disk Space.
When you install Access SQL/iX on MPE/iX, the product uses approximately
18,000 disk sectors for its permanent files.
Software Requirements
Access SQL/iX uses the following software on the HP 3000 Series 900
computers:
* MPE/iX ALLBASE/SQL version A.F0.57
* MPE/iX version 4.0 or later and version A.G0.24
* ORACLE version 6.0 and version 7.0
* INGRES version 6.3 and version 6.4
* If you are using ALLBASE/SQL and/or ORACLE, LAN3000/iX network
software is required.
* If you are using INGRES, NS3000/iX network software is required.
INGRES does not support basic serial connections; it must be on a
LAN.
MPE/iX Configuration.
When you configure MPE/iX for Access SQL/iX, consider these criteria:
* When running under basic serial software, configure ports from
which Information Access will run as terminal type 10. The
datacomm software expects transmission to be from a terminal type
10, and over a modem, could time out on a transmission from a port
that is specified as something other than type 10. However, if
you are running under direct hardwired basic serial software (not
through a modem), it is not necessary to run as terminal type 10.
* As with any new product installation, review the system
configuration and make any necessary adjustments. (See Chapter 3,
"Installing SQL/iX.")
