4 AlphaServer GS60E Release Notes
Installation of DECevent
AlphaServer GS60E systems installed and/or supported by Compaq Computer
Corporation are required to have all appropriate Service tools installed and verified as
part of the installation process.
DECevent provides critical error event translation and analysis for AlphaServer GS60E
systems running OpenVMS, Tru64 UNIX, and Windows NT. (Note that DECevent is not yet
supported on GS60E systems with the Windows NT operating system.)
The kit contains the following functionality:
• Translation (binary to text)
• Reporting
• Analysis
• Notification (OpenVMS and Tru64 UNIX only)
• GUI (Graphical User Interface)
On OpenVMS and Tru64 UNIX systems, the analysis and notification portions of DECevent
are protected functionality. To enable this functionality, you must obtain a PAK (Product
Authorization Key) from your local Compaq Service Representative. DECevent, however,
does perform binary to text translations without a PAK installed.
