502.0. "Motif V1.1.3, license DW-MOTIF, NAS-APP-SUP-250 ?" by UTROP1::RIJSBERGEN_M (Marcel Rijsbergen @uto) Thu Dec 01 1994 22:07

    
    Question to clear up a fog in my head.
    
    Current system is running OpeVMS/VAX V5.5-2 with DECwindows motif. This
    Motif version is (ANAL/IMAG SYS$SHARE:XLIBSHR.EXE) DW 1.1-920519. The
    license for this Motif is in NAS-APP-SUP-250. Is this DECwindows V1.1.3
    as mentioned in the pre-requisites ?
    
    When the customer upgrades to OpenVMS/VAX V6.1 the upgrade for
    DECwindows is (according to installation manual) a run-time only
    version.
    
    Q: Is this run-time enough for PCM ?
    
    Q: If not and they want to upgrade to the DECwindows Motif V1.2 (is
    this V1.1.3 mentioned in the pre-requisites) is the NAS-APP-SUP-250
    license enough or do they need DW-MOTIF license instead ? Sorry but
    some version and licensing stuff is still foggy to me.

    No. This naming scheme is really more for the u**x boxes to my 
    knowledge. bear in mind the Operating system pre-requiste is VMS 6.0.

    I don't like the wording there. It's really the device support files.

    Not if you want to use the local display (if it exists of course)

    NET-APP-SUP-250 will properly license Motif and Motif V1.1 is more than
    adequate and supported on OpenVMS systems.
