 | NOTE: The information in this manual can be used to create
LU 6.2 API applications on MPE V systems or MPE XL systems. Any
differences between LU 6.2 API on MPE V and LU 6.2 API on MPE XL
are noted in the manual. MPE/iX, Multiprogramming Executive with Integrated POSIX,
is the latest in a series of forward-compatible operating systems
for the HP 3000 line of computers. In HP documentation and in talking with HP 3000 users,
you will encounter references to MPE XL, the direct predecessor
of MPE/iX. MPE/iX is a superset of MPE XL. All programs written
for MPE XL will run without change under MPE/iX. You can continue
to use MPE XL system documentation, although it may not
refer to features added to the operating system to support POSIX
(for example, hierarchical directories). Finally, you may encounter references to MPE V, which is the
operating system for HP 3000s, not based on the PA-RISC
architecture. MPE V software can be run on the PA-RISC (Series 900)
HP 3000s in what is known as compatibility mode. |
