Overview

Operating Environments (OEs) are tested and integrated application bundles designed to work with the operating system and provide the functionality needed for your system’s purpose. The following lists the currently available HP-UX 11i v2 OEs:

  • HP-UX 11i v2 Foundation OE (FOE) — Designed for the demands of Web servers, content servers and front-end servers, this OE includes applications such as HP-UX Web Server Suite, Java, and Mozilla Application Suite. This OE is bundled as HPUX11i-OE. For more details, see “HP-UX 11i v2 Foundation Operating Environment ”.

  • HP-UX 11i v2 Enterprise OE (EOE) — Designed for database application servers and logic servers, this OE contains the HP-UX 11i v2 Foundation OE bundles and additional applications such as GlancePlus Pak to enable an enterprise-level server. This OE is bundled as HPUX11i-OE-ENT. For more details, see “HP-UX 11i v2 Enterprise Operating Environment”.

  • HP-UX 11i v2 Mission Critical OE (MCOE) — Designed for the large, powerful back-end application servers and database servers that access customer files and handle transaction processing, this OE contains the Enterprise OE bundles, plus applications such as HP Serviceguard and Workload Manager to enable a mission-critical server. This OE is bundled as HPUX11i-OE-MC. For more details, see “HP-UX 11i v2 Mission Critical Operating Environment”.

HP-UX 11i v2 Minimal Technical Operating Environment

IMPORTANT: HP-UX 11i v2 May 2005 is last release that will include the Minimal Technical OE. After May 2005, the Minimal Technical OE will no longer be delivered. If you have questions, contact your HP sales representative.

The Minimal Technical Operating Environment is the smallest and most fundamental OE that is defined specifically for HP workstations. It exists to offer an HP-UX 11i v2 solution to the customer who is interested in a low-cost HP Workstation and a correspondingly basic Operating Environment. The Minimal Technical OE is directed to the Workstation OEM market and to those customers for whom the Technical Computing OE is not a suitable solution.

The Minimal Technical OE contains all the base functionality that is common to the other four OEs, including the base 64-bit HP-UX operating system, network drivers, and some of the other always-installed features. However, compared to the Technical Computing OE, the set of additional features is greatly reduced.

The HP-UX 11i v2 Minimal Technical OE includes the following features. (For an overview of the features that are new or have changed in this release, see Chapter 3 “What is New at a Glance”.)

Like the Minimal Technical Operating Environment, the Technical Computing Operating Environment contains all the base functionality that is common to the other four OEs, including the base 64-bit HP-UX operating system, network drivers, and other always-installed functionality. While it is not a superset of the Foundation OE, it is a superset of the Minimal Technical OE. Unlike the Minimal Technical OE, however, the Technical Computing OE is available on both technical servers and workstations.

In addition to the features found in the Minimal Technical OE, the HP-UX 11i v2 Technical Computing OE includes the following features. (For an overview of the features that are new or have changed in this release, see Chapter 3 “What is New at a Glance”.)
