This binary file is only compatible with HP-UX OS revisions 10.x or higher and displays the information we need to know in order to generate a new RamDisc Plus license key. Use this file for a demo license as well. Just tell us how many demo days you need. The executable displays system information as well as company and contact information. Complete and send all of the information to licreq@ramdisc.com for a license request. Please note: New users should download the latest revision shown below in yellow. Please note: The green links direct you to the release notes page. Revision 3.05 (or higher) support for PA-RISC or Itanium processors. Revision 4.01 (or higher) support for MC/ServiceGuard (failover software) Revision 4.01 (or higher) support for 512GB capacities using 11i v2 (11.23). Revision 4.07 (or higher) support for the 11i v3 (11.31) Operating System.
Please note: New revisions of the same release do not require a new license. If you currently have a support contract and you wish to upgrade to a new release of RamDisc Plus, you may use our online license conversion utility. Installation instructions: Copy the downloaded ramplus-revXXX.tar file to your HP-UX /tmp directory. Logged in as root, do the following: # tar -xvf /tmp/ramplus-revXXX.tar # /tmp/ram_install (If this is a revision upgrade then stop here.) # /sbin/ramdisc -install (for initial installation) (Add license and configure storage requirements.) (The system will reconfigure the kernel and reboot the system if needed.) (Use /sbin/ramdisc without the install option afterwards for additional configuration.) (You may want to use the -display option for systems without graphics using X windows.) Note: Earlier revisions of RamDisc Plus may be found on our ftp site. Note: Use our demo license extend utility to obtain an extended license. (This utility is used when your demo license has expired and you need more evaluation runtime.) Note: RamDisc Plus price list may be found on the RamDisc Software page.
