Information You Need Prior to Installation on OpenVMS

You need to know your license key. These keys are for a specific number of CPUs. If more cores are detected than the license allows, the installation will be blocked.

• The remedy for a core blocked installation is to obtain and use a correct license or use a machine with the correct core count (which may be a real or a virtualized environment).
• Some features use additional license codes that are not specified during the installation.

You need to know your SMTP mail server information, if you will use any of the server email notification features.

You need a server administrator user ID, referred to as iadmin in the remainder of this chapter. For information about server administrator and other user IDs, see Creating User IDs.
