Introducing In formation Access on HP- UX

For the past four years. the Information Access software product has provided users with the capability to access data on H P 3000 systems through their PCs. With the introduction 01' H P NewWave Office for HP-UX, Information Access now has been extended to now support H P 9000 Series 600 and 800 multi- user computer systems and allow users to access H P ALLBASEISQL and ORACLE relational databases. Addi- tionally, users will have the capability of encapsulating Information Access for use in the H P NewWave environment.

The H P NewWave Office Information Access services allow uiers to select a range of data sources from their H P 9000 or PC and output the data to PC applications of their choice. Within the cooperative computing environment. Information Access services con- sist of an easy-to-use client interface on the u!,er's PC and a data server on the H P 9000 Series 600 and 800. With NewWave Office Information Access, decision makers spend less time gathering data and more time analyzing and solving business problems.

On the PC, an interactive, query-by- example interface allows users to join, select. sort, summarize. and convert data in either the H P NewWave or MS-L>OSej environment. The data can then be formatted for use in popular PC applications. [n addition. the built-in report writer can be used to generate professional reports without involve- ment from the database administrator.

A batch processing feature is also available. allowing repetitive tasks to be fully automated. Within the H P New- Wave environment, these tasks can be scheduled and executed by the NewWave Agent.

On the H P 9000 Series 600 and 800. a data server enables PCs to connect and retrieve data from H P ALLBASEISQL and ORACLE relational databases. These databases provide administration functions that allow database adminis- trators to maintain security and control of the data sources, while satisfying users' needs for data.

As an "advanced encapsulated" tool in the NewWave environment, Information Access runs as a full screen application and is represented as an icon in the NewWave desktop. In addition, the NewWave Agent can execute Informa- tion Access command files. With Microsoft Windows 2.1 features. Information Access can utilize the capabilities of context switching.

For your terminal-based applications written in C or COBOL 11, it is now easy to include pop-up windows, pull- down menus. function keys, on-line heIp, and color.

Hewlett-Packard now sells and supports JAM. a user-interface management system for character-based terminals. JAM eliminates the extensive coding nor- mally required for user interfaces. and enables you to produce a unified and attractive software system in far less time than conventional methods.

Portability

For extra productivity. interfaces created with JAM are portable between HP platforms, and across 70 non-HP platforms. Your clients won't be able to tell whether they're working on HP-UX. MPE XL, UNlX systems. VMS. MS-DOS, or other systems. All their applications will look equally impressive and function identically. This reduces training time, increases effectiveness, and allows for fast, low- impact introductions of new technology

Better solutions sooner

You can also use JAM as a prototyping tool. With JAM'S authoring tools, you can link together screens, windows.

menus. and function keys to create an impressive prototype that looks and behaves like a completed application. Your clients can test the prototype. determine its effectiveness. and suggest possible iniprownlents before coding in C o r COBOL I1 begins. Prototyping can help you give your clients the best solution sooner.

' Screen design features such as pop-up windows. pull down menus. and color

' Screen Editor to create. test. and modify your screens. menus. and wii~dows

' Data Dictionary and Data Dictionary Editor for specification and editing of ficld characteristics

' Procedural language for performing complex processing without leaving thc authoring environment

' Soft key support

External interface that allows existing programs and operating system conimands to be easily integrated into your application

' Application portability between systcms

' Sul~port for European l a n p a g e applications

Benefits

' Productivity

- iipplications are portable across many operating systems including MPE XL, HP-UX. MS-DOS. \'MS. and UNlX systems.

- Coding is not required. - Fipplications can be tested within

the development environnlent. - Data Dictionary prevents repetition.

E;l:,e of use

- 1;nterhccs are created by selecting s,:reen options and pressing function keys

- Self-paced training guide - On-linc help

Increased end-user effectiveness

- Ease of use through pop-up windows, menus, and color

- Unified interface for end-user interface

- Shorter learning cycle - Low-impact introduction of new

technology

- Because JAM links interfaces to hackend code written in C or COBOL 11, application performance is consistent with that of other third-generation language applications.

Vt3k: virtual terminal service from an hlP 9000 to an hlP 3000

If you wish to use the H P 9000 as a display server to heterogeneous systems for CASE, CIM. and office applications, Vt3k and hpterm now allow access to H P 3000 systems. Details art: in this and the following article.

In HP-UX release 7.0, Vt3k is HP's first virtual terminal service from H P 9000 to H P 3000 systems. Vt3k provides the HILUX user with convenient access to MPE commands and applications. including MPE block-mode applications such as H P Desk. It comes bundled with the Network Services products on both H P 9000 Series 300 and 800 systems.

Product description

Vt3k provides direct log-on capability (via LAN) from HP-UX to MPE V or MPE XL. An invocation of Vt3k from H F U X establishes a connection to an HI' 3000 running NS Virtual Terniinal Services. Upon successful connection. the HP-UX user receives an MPE log-on prompt. At this point, the user types the hello log in and proceeds with the MPE session as normal. When the user logs off the MPE system, the connection is automatically returned to HF'-UX.

Native Language Support on HP-UX ZO

Thc growing acceptance of HP-UX in technical. government. and commercial environments has accelerated the need for an internationalized HP-UX system t h a ~ can handle languages and customs reflective of countries other than the United States.

Hewlett-Packard has responded to this need by offering Native Language Sup- port (NLS) and Native Language Input1 Output (NLIO) on the HP-UX operating system. NLS and NLIO are available at the user-command level of the operating system. In addition, conimands and libraries are provided for application designers to use in the development of international software.

HP--UX 7.0 adds some of the enhancements. These enhancements include HP-UX and subsystem conimands, NLIO. XlOpen NLS tools. Open- NLIOIX, and Japanese libraries.

New HP Model 45 X.25 switch and mult@rotocol pad

The H P PPN Model 45 is a new entry- level X.25 switching node with an integrated multiprotocol PAD. It provides, on a single system, simple connectivity between H P and non-HP systems (including IBM) and concentration of

devices with different protocols. It is targeted for smaller customer site, and departments of large companies using X.25 for their WAN and public data network connections.

Features and benefits

Positioning

Stand-alone - The Model 45 can operate as an entry-level stand-alone X.25 switch routing and concentrating data traffic from H P 3000. H P 9000, H P 233415 PAD, DTC, and multivendor systems to a public X.25 network or over a leased line. The integrated PAD capabilities allow H P and IBM systems running IBM applications with the SNAISDLC protocol to communicate over an X.25 network, thus bringing the complementary benefits of X.25 to SNA environments.

Small net,twrk - Several Model 45 systems can be interconnected to form a small X.25 network, thus improving multivendor connectivity and H P account control for customers with several dispersed sites.

HP PPN crcress - As part of the H P Private Packet Network ( H P PPN) family, the Model 45 can function as a cost-effective multivendor access switchlPAD for remote sites feeding an H P PPN or other private backbone network. thus extending the overall H P PPN solution.

Product overview

The Model 45 is an X.25 switching node and multiprotocol PAD providing simple multivendor networking. Built on an H P platform, i t consists of one or more 4-port multiprotocol Line Proces- sor (LP) cards supporting X.25. SNAI SDLC, and asynchronous protocols. In addition. one lower-cost 4-port asynchronous expansion card (asynchronous ports only) is available. Two versions of the Model 45 are available depending on the required modularity. The Desk- top version (PIN J2000A) supports configurations from 4 to 12 ports. and the Tower version (PIN J2001A) which supports configurations from 4 to 20 ports.

In addition to providing X.25 switching (150 packets per secondl4-port card) functionality. the Model 45 has an integral SNAISDLC PAD. This facili- tates comnlunication between remote SNA control units and an SNA host processor over an X.25 network. It also features an integral asynchronous PAD enabling communication between remote terminals o r printers to one or more central computers over an X.25 network. Unlike many competing products, which have whole systcn~s or whole cards dedicated to one protocol. individual ports on the Model 45 can be configured as an X.25 port. a SNAISDLC PAD port. o r an asynchronous PAD port.

Control and management of local or remote Model 45 systems can be per- formed via an attached monitor and keyboard (PIN J30CVA) or using an ANSI terliiinal.

Try it before you buy it

H P has set up a worldwide demo program that allows users to try the Model 45 and experience its benefits before actually buying it.

HP LAN Manager/X for HP 9000 systems

In the past two to three years, there has been an increasing need for integrating personal computers running DOS or OSl2 with computers running the UNIX operating system. With the advent of OSl2 LAN Manager, Hlewlett-Packard and Microsoft saw a!n opportunity to use the same technology in the mixed PC-UNIX system environment.

H[P, in partnership with Microsoft, jointly developed the LAN Manager technology on a standard UNIX system platform. At the same time, HP put LAN ManagerIX on its HP 9000 family of computers running HP-UX (both the Series 300 and the Series 800 platforms). HP LAN ManagerIX provides easy integration of PC workstations with the HP 9000 system. From a user's perspective. accessing a LAN ManagerIX server is identical to accessing a LAN Manager OSl2 server.

H[P LAN ManagerIX can increase work group productivity in both the technical and the commercial markets. The new powerful 80286 and 386 workstations irtcreasingly are being found in engineering environments where a UNIX system has been widely used. At the same time, UNIX system platforms have become accepted as replacements for other midrange computers in the commercial market, where PC usage is very high.

HIP LAN ManagerIX extends the capabilities of the clientlserver model b:y allowing PC users access to the resources on the HP-UX computers. LAN ManagerIX integrates with other components of AdvanceNet , such as TCPIIP. NFS, and X.400 and it will be migrated to support OSI transports as they become available on the HP 9000 platform.

HP LAN ManageriX complements other HP PC networking products. such as HP ARPA Services 2.01 MS-DOS and HP Network Services 2.0IMS-DOS. Lan ManageriX is backward compatible with existing Officeshare and HP 3000 NewWave Office networks.

Key features

Wide range of servers allows users to choose the best server to meet their needs.

' Network file sharing reduces the number of copies and increases data integrity and consistency.

Network peripheral sharing to share expensive peripherals instead of dedicating them to each PC.

Comprehensive spooler saves con- siderable administrative and user time and increases user productivity

' Standard Application Program lnter- faces (APIs) - program development tools enable application developers to write applications across DOS, OS12, and HP-UX.

' Industry-standard transports and links to allow users to invest in systems that best meet their needs.

Open architecture - LAN Manager has been endorsed by such major vendors as IBM, AT&T, DEC, SCO. and many others.

' Backward compatibility to Office- Share and HP 3000 NewWave Office protects users' investment.

Sophisticated network administration and management tools to reduce the administrator's efforts and increases overall users' productivity.

Compatibility with HP LAN Manager for OSi2, HP Network Services 2.0IMS-DOS, and HP ARPA Services 2.0IMS-DOS increases productivity by allowing easy access to multiple computers.

H P LAN Manager for UNIX system (they are licensed and ship with that product, as well). LAN Manager for OSl2 and MS-DOS comes in a five- client. entry-level product, and in an unlimited client version.

H P LAN Manager for OSl2 and MS-DOS increases workgroup productivity in both technical and commcr- cia1 markets. The emergence of the powerful 80286180386-based PC has increased the number of PCs found in many environments. LAN Manager for OSl2 and MS-DOS solves the user's and system administrator's problem of integrating MS-DOS and OSl2 PCs with their existing equipment and resources.

I H P LAN Manager for OSl2 and MS-DOS is an important part of HP's AdvanceNet strategy and can be seen as the follow on to HP's Office- Share family. Both the server and user portions are greatly enhanced over OfficeShare. H P LAN Manager for OSl2 and MS-DOS is based on 3Com's 3 + 0 p e n LAN Manager product. The LAN Manager client software can access the LAN Manager OSl2 server. the server in the new H P LAN Man- agerlX product, H P NewWave Office (Business System PLUSiResource Shar- ing). and the server in the current H P OfficeShare product.
