HP OpenVMS Alpha Version 8.3 and HP OpenVMS Version 8.3-1H1 for Integrity Servers SPD 82.35.14
Process Dumps
When an application fails, a copy of its registers and
memory can be written to a data file, which can be
examined using the ANALYZE PROCESS utility. This
utility uses the same interface and commands as the
OpenVMS Debugger to allow registers and memory to
be examined. On Alpha or Integrity servers, another
process can initiate the writing of the memory dump.
RMS File Utilities
Record Management Services (RMS) file utilities allow
users to analyze the internal structure of an RMS file
and tune the I/O, memory, space and performance pa-
rameters of the file. The RMS file utilities can also be
used to create, load, and reclaim space in an RMS file.
Refer to the Operating System Environment section of
this SPD for more information about RMS.
File Differences Utility
This utility compares the contents of two files and lists
those records that do not match.
Translated Image Environment (TIE) (Alpha)
OpenVMS Alpha provides an array of services that
allow the operation of programs which have under-
gone binary translation from OpenVMS VAX images.
These programs perform virtually all user-mode func-
tions on OpenVMS Alpha and operate in combination
with other programs (images) that have been translated
from OpenVMS VAX or have been built using native
compilers on OpenVMS Alpha. Without requiring spe-
cial source code, the TIE resolves differences between
the VAX and Alpha architectures, including floating-
point registers, condition codes, exception handling, and
ASTs. The TIE included with OpenVMS Alpha can run
images that have been translated elsewhere.

Translated Image Environment (TIE)
(Integrity servers)
OpenVMS for Integrity servers provides an array of
services that allow the operation of programs which
have undergone binary translation from OpenVMS Al-
pha images or VESTed OpenVMS VAX images. These
programs perform virtually all user-mode functions on
OpenVMS for Integrity servers and operate in combi-
nation with other programs (images) that have been
translated from OpenVMS Alpha or VAX, or have been
built using native compilers on OpenVMS for Integrity
servers. Without requiring special source code, the TIE
resolves differences between the Alpha and Integrity ar-
chitectures, including floating-point.

SYSTEM MANAGEMENT ENVIRONMENT
OpenVMS provides a set of tools and utilities that aid
the system manager in configuring and maintaining an
optimal system as follows:
Web-Based Enterprise Management Services for
OpenVMS
Web-Based Enterprise Managment (WBEM) Services
for OpenVMS is an industry standard for monitoring
and controlling resources. It is available and installed
automatically with OpenVMS on Integrity server sys-
tems. WBEM Services for OpenVMS (WBEMCIM) is
required for use of such features as Instant Capacity
(iCAP), Temporary Instant Capacity (TiCAP), and Pay
per use (PPU), and for products such as Global Work-
load Manager (gWLM), and HP Systems Insight Man-
ager (HP SIM). In addition, WBEM Providers for Open-
VMS is installed automatically with OpenVMS for In-
tegrity servers. It is required for HP SIM services and
GiCAP.
With version 8.3-1H1 support for HP BL860c Server
Blade, management and monitoring of these systems
is accomplished by WBEM communicating with HP SIM
management agents. For server blade support, new
"Providers" are included that enable the monitoring of
hardware and the operating system, including:
• Operating system
• Computer system
• Process and processor statistics
• Indication (monitors events)
• Firmware version
• Fan and power supply
• Management Processor
• CPU instance
• Memory instance
• Enclosure
