HP-UX 11i v2 Minimal Technical OE (MTOE)

The Minimal Technical Operating Environment (MTOE) 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 Operating Environment is directed to the Workstation OEM market and to those customers for whom the Technical Computing Operating Environment (TCOE) is not a suitable solution.

The MTOE 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 Operating Environment, the set of additional features is greatly reduced.

The HP-UX 11i v2 Minimal Technical Operating Environment includes the following features. (“New/Changed Features at a Glance” details which of these features are new or have changed.)

Always-Installed Features. 

  • Event Monitoring Service

  • FDDI (PCI)

  • FibreChannel (PCI)

  • Gigabit Ethernet (PCI)

  • Gigabit Ethernet Next Generation (PCI)

  • HP WBEM Services for HP-UX

  • HP-UX Kernel Configuration

  • iEther (PCI)

  • VERITAS File System (base VxVS/JFS)

  • VERITAS Volume Manager (base)

Default-Installed Features.

HP-UX 11i v2 Technical Computing OE (TCOE)

Like the Minimal Technical Operating Environment, the Technical Computing Operating Environment (TCOE) 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 11i v2 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 HP-UX 11i v2 Minimal Technical OE, the HP-UX 11i v2 Technical Computing OE includes the following features. (“New/Changed Features at a Glance” details which of these features are new or have changed.)

Always-Installed Features. 

  • HP CIFS Client

  • HP CIFS Server

  • PAM Kerberos
