Software: HP Porting OpenVMS To AMD64
Posted on Wednesday, June 18 @ 09:57:06 CEST by viper

HP

AMDZone has some new on OpenVMS. From this page it looks as if though HP plans to port OpenVMS to AMD64.

.9 Why hasn't OpenVMS been ported to Intel (IA-32) systems?

Why? Business reasons...

There is presently a belief that there would be insufficient market to justify the cost involved in porting OpenVMS to systems using the Intel IA-32 architecture. In addition to the direct costs involved in any port, each maintainer of a product or a package for OpenVMS has to justify the port to "OpenVMS Pentium" or to OpenVMS Itanium, akin to the required justifications for a product port from OpenVMS VAX to OpenVMS Alpha.

But yes, it would be nice to have.

And yes, OpenVMS Engineering is well aware of AMD Opteron/Hammer, too.

More info @ HP
