HP OpenVMS Alpha Version 8.3 and HP OpenVMS Version 8.3-1H1 for Integrity Servers SPD 82.35.14
maintain system security and deter possible intruders.
The OpenVMS Audit Analysis utility allows you to gen-
erate various reports from this data.
Autoconfigure and AUTOGEN Utilities
The Autoconfigure and AUTOGEN utilities automatically
configure the available devices in the system tables and
set system parameters based on the peripheral and
memory architecture. This eliminates the need for a tra-
ditional system generation process when the hardware
configuration is expanded or otherwise modified.
The OpenVMS AUTOGEN command procedure sets
several system parameters automatically by detecting
the devices installed in a configuration. A feedback op-
tion allows you to generate a report of recommended
parameter settings based on previous usage patterns.
Backup Utility
The Backup utility provides both full-volume and incre-
mental file backups for file-structured, mounted volumes
and volume sets. Individual files, selected directory
structures, or all files on a volume set can be backed
up and restored. Files can be selected by various dates
(such as creation or modification) and can be backed up
to magnetic tape, magnetic disk, or Write Once Read
Many (WORM) optical disk. The Backup utility can also
be used to restore a saveset or list the contents of a
saveset.
A Backup API is included for invoking backup routines
from an executable procedure.
The Backup Manager for OpenVMS provides a screen-
oriented interface to the Backup utility that assists users
in performing routine backup operations. The Backup
Manager is menu driven and provides:
• Access to the save, restore, and list operations with-
out having to understand Backup command syntax
• The ability to create, modify, recall, and delete
Backup Manager templates that describe the Backup
save operations
Recordable DVD
OpenVMS provides the capability on Alpha and Integrity
server systems to record locally mastered disk volumes
or disk image files onto a CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R or
DVD+RW optical-media recording device on specific
drives and configurations.
Recordable CD
OpenVMS provides the capability to write once to CD-R
media using an application shipping in the base oper-
ating system. The feature supports only those writable
CD devices (CD-RW) that ship with supported Alpha
systems and supported Integrity servers. For the ap-
plication details, please reference the OpenVMS doc-
umentation set. For platforms supporting the CD-RW
hardware option, please refer to the appropriate page

Analyze Disk Structure Utility
The Analyze Disk Structure utility compares the struc-
ture information on a disk volume with the contents of
the disk, prints the structure information, and permits
changes to that information. It can also be used to re-
pair errors detected in the file structure of disks.
License Management Facility (LMF)
The License Management Facility allows the system
manager to enable software licenses and to determine
which software products are licensed on an OpenVMS
system.
System Management Utility (SYSMAN)
The System Management utility allows system man-
agers to define a management environment in which
operations performed from the local OpenVMS system
can be executed on all other OpenVMS systems in the
environment.
HP Services Tools

analysis and hardware fault isolation. For more infor-

SECURITY
OpenVMS provides a rich set of tools to control user ac-
cess to system-controlled data structures and devices
that store information. OpenVMS employs a reference
monitor concept that mediates all access attempts be-
tween subjects (such as user processes) and security-
relevant system objects (such as files). OpenVMS also
provides a system security audit log file that records the
results of all object access attempts. The audit log can
also be used to capture information regarding a wide
variety of other security-relevant events.
User account information, privileges and quotas associ-
ated with each user account is maintained in the system
user authorization file (SYSUAF). Each user account is
assiged a user name, password, and unique user iden-
tification code (UIC). To log in and gain access to the
system, the user must supply a valid user name and
password. The password is encoded and does not ap-
pear on terminal displays.
