Preface

This

manual

describes how to use

VAX.

4000 Model 300

timesharing

and

VAXserver 4000 Model 300

server

systems.

The

hardware

and

software

for each

these

systems

differs slightly, according to

the

function

the

system.

The

VAX.

4000

multiuser

system

that

uses

the

VMS

operating

system.

The

VAXserver 4000 system

a single-user system

that

uses

VMS

VAXELN

operating

systems. Both systems can function

end-

full-function node

Ethernet

network.

The

manual

structured

follows:

•

Chapter

1 provides

overview

the

systems.

•

Chapter

2 describes how to use

each

system.

•

Chapter

3 describes how to use options

installed

the

systems.

• Appendix A

lists

documentation.

• Appendix B describes how to

set

and

examine

internal

parameters

for

-series ISAs.

• Appendix C describes procedures for

creating

backup

files.

• Appendix D describes how to

use

VMSTAILOR to remove

unwanted

VMS files from

the

system disk.

• A glossary explains key

tenns.

NOTE: VAXserver systems are designed to offer

maximum

performance for

applications

that

not

require timesharing.

Some

the devices referred to

this

manual

are designed for

multiuser

systems

and

may

not

suitable

for server systems. Contact

your

Digital service representative

you have

any

questions about whether use

a specific device is appropriate for

your

server system.
