  1. VAX 7000/10000

    The VAX 7000 and VAX 10000 were a series of high end multiprocessor minicomputers developed and manufactured by Digital Equipment Corporation DEC , introduced in July 1992. These systems used microprocessors implementing the VAX instruction set architecture ISA . These computers ran Digital s OpenVMS operating system . They were designed in parallel with the DEC 7000 10000 AXP DEC 7000 AXP and DEC 7000 10000 AXP DEC 10000 AXP server computing server computers, and were identical except for the CPU modules used and the supported I O bus interfaces. Digital intended customers of the VAX 7000 10000 to eventually upgrade to the Alpha based configuration DEC 7000 10000 AXP by simply swapping the VAX based CPU module s for those based on the Alpha. Models The VAX 10000 was essentially a larger configuration of the VAX 7000. Both shared the same System Cabinet, but the VAX 10000 was configured as standard with one Expander Cabinet housing storage devices, and one Battery Cabinet housing an uninterruptible power supply. These were optional for a VAX 7000 system. VAX 7000 There were three models of the VAX 7000. Model 6x0 The Model 6x0, code named Laser Neon , was announced on 7 July 1992 in Zurich , Switzerland with the United States announcement on 15 July.

  1. VAX Macro

    VAX Macro is the assembly language computer assembly language implementing the instruction set for the line of CPU s designed to run the OpenVMS operating system created by Digital Equipment Corporation in 1977. OpenVMS now belongs to Hewlett Packard . The syntax, directives, macro language, and lexical substitution operators of VAX Macro previously appeared in Macro 11 , the assembler for the PDP 11 series of computers. VAX Macro or, as it was also known, Macro 32 , supported the VAX processors developed and manufactured by Digital Equipment Corporation . It ran under the VAX VMS operating system and produced object files suitable for the VAX VMS Linker computing linker . The Macro 32 assembler and the linker were bundled with the operating system. With the advent of the 64 bit Alpha AXP chip, VAX Macro essentially became VMS Macro . Macro 32 was supported on the Alpha architecture, but because the Alpha used a different instruction set, the Macro 32 assembly language no longer mapped to the native instruction set. Macro 32 under the Alpha AXP Alpha architecture was actually implemented then as a compiler, compiling VAX assembly language into Alpha instructions. Unlike most compilers, however, Macro 32 for Alpha performed no optimization, retaining as much as possible the programmer s direct control over the generated code. The Alpha AXP chips introduced to the VMS world then the latest progression of the VMS Macro language, supporting the underlying RISC instruction set, and was called Macro 64 . A compiler from Macro 32 is available for Intel Itanium architecture ref http h71000.www7.hp.com wizard wiz 9837.html?jumpid reg R1002 USEN HP OpenVMS ask the wizard Macro32 Assemblers and Compilers?
