HELIOS server vendors »

Explanation of column titles:

Hardware

The original hardware vendor. In case another vendor offers binary compatible machines which can be run with the OS of the original hardware vendor, it is likely that HELIOS products can also be used on that machines. However, a test should be conducted in any case.

Many hardware vendors offer different major versions of their OS, e.g. Solaris 8, 9, 10. In that case, supported OS versions for different major OS versions are listed.

arch

The architecture string under which HELIOS products are listed for this hardware.

UB / UB+

HELIOS UB products were first released on CD021, and UB+ on CD023. The listed OS in this column are compatible with HELIOS UB / UB+ products.

Comments

Any comments related to HELIOS support for a specific OS version or platform.

Deprecated platforms

Though the following platforms are still supported by CD022, the support is not continued in future HELIOS software versions. We recommend to switch to one of the platforms stated above.

Hardware	OS	arch	UB / UB+	Comments
HP IA-64 Itanium	HP-UX	hpia64	HP-UX 11v2
HP PA-RISC	HP-UX	hppa	HP-UX 11, 11iv1 (v2 is not supported)	TechInfo #071 TechInfo #088
HP Alpha UNIX	Alpha UNIX	alpha	Tru64 5.1
