1 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 2010 CHARON-VAX in the Aviation industry Norbert Stadler Norbert.Stadler@NST-IT-Design.de www.NST-IT-Design.de Unterhaching/Bayern

2 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 2010 Agenda/Inhalt Customer case #1 – Liebherr Aero Space Lindenberg/Allgäu Customer case #2 – AustroControl Vienna/Austria

3 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 20103 To see the experience VAX emulation with CHARON-VAX

4 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 20104 Control software for air conditioning systems for the following aircrafts Airbus A330/340 Airbus A330F (Freighter) Airbus A340-500/600 Starting Situation

5 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 20105 Starting Situation A340-600 A330F

6 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 20106 Situation before CHARON-VAX Problems: Less and lessVAX/VMS know-how in the company Port to Windows plattform very complex and expensive (~900 Pascal modules) No matching compiler/linker for generating 68332 compatible code under Windows VAX Support through HP ended 2007

7 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 20107 Installed Hardware VAX-Cluster consists of VAXStation 4000-90A VAXStation 4000-90 VAXStation 4000-60 MicroVAX3300 MicroVAX 3400 Used VMS Version: VMS V5.5-2

8 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 20108 Software on Digital Equipment Hardware Installed Compiler/Linker/Assembler: - Pascal Compiler PAS68K V 3.3P Microtec - Assembler ASM68K V 6.9C Microtec - Linker LOD68K V 6.9C Microtec Network: Koax-Net ((Cluster)cable like a cable TV connector) over multipoint repeater connected to the company LAN (Ethernet) appr. 2Mbit throughput

9 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 20109 Migration, Consolidation Work done Installation of CHARON-VAX HP ProLiant DL380 Dual Core with 2GB, 2 Network adapters 2 Disk drives Breakup of VAX-Clusters Modification of „Mount Disk“ scripts Modification of startup scripts Consolidation of Vax cluster into a single node

10 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201010 Migration, consolidation An initial backup of all disk drives had been done List of disks in cluster (13 disk drives with a total capacity of 22 GB Storage) AA05$DKA100: AA05$DKA300: AA05$DKA400: AA06$DKA0: AA06$DKA300: AS01$DKA100: AS01$DKA300: AS01$DKA400: AS02$DKA0: AS02$DKA200: AS02$DKA400: $1$DIAA0: $1$DIA10:

11 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201011 Migration, Consolidation Creation of backup container for Windows based Backup (VMS backup into container, then gigabit Ethernet to backup server) Combined OpenVMS licenses DecWindows/Motif server on Windows clients Backup VMS No backup of system disk. In worst case there is the initial backup available The modified data will be saved under Windows by ClearCase/ClearQuest and Rational Backup Windows: on a daily base Windows system management is done by internal it

12 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201012 Experiences Development tool runs (X32 from BlueRiver, Nurnberg) on a standard PC (Windows-XP) The modified modules will be copied into a directory on the VAX (via script or FTP or remote access) Afterwards the compile /link run is startet The generated.EXE file will be copied back to the development PC Load of the.EXE file into the target computer (68332 CPU)

13 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201013 Experiences Compile time has been reduced by a factor of 10 A compile run with approximatly 1000 modules of the application ran 5 hours, on CHARON-VAX it runs in 35 minutes!!

15 DIESER TEXT DIENT DER NAVIGATION 15 VAX VMS Cluster based on CHARON-VAX Replacement of VAX,ALPHA and HSJ hardware by standard industry hardwarecomponents.

16 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201016 Starting position Bureau-Cluster: Release and development platform for AATMS-System VAX6420 Alpha1000A/5/400 VAX4090 HSJ40(TZ887) + SC VMS-Versionen(6.2,7.1) VAX6420 (VMS6.2) Alpha1000A (VMS7.1) VAX4090 (VMS6.2) Tapes N-Disks HSJ40 SC LAN

17 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201017 Pictures of machines

18 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201018 Current situation  HW:  HW Maintenance contracts very expensive  Support for VAX from HP discontinued/terminated.  Spare parts, very hard to get.  No technical skills anymore within the company.  SW:  Different VMS versions in use, complex system management  Not all “Layered Products” available due to certain VMS versions  SW(RTL2), runs only on VAXVMS.

19 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201019 Decision Emulation of Vax, Port of RTL2 code too complicated/expensive HW:  HP DL380G5 server:  (Dualcore, 2GB RAM,4SAS- Disks)  MSA2000fc external storage for VMS-Cluster:  (12 x 147GB SAS-Disks)  LTO-Ultrium3-Tapestation:  (LTO2(200/400GB) Tapes SW: Windows2003R2 as host-System for CharonVAX CharonVAX (XM,XK Licenes) VAXVMS7.3

20 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201020 Data center Location of „First Level Supports“ HW-Konfiguration: Ethernet-Switch FC-Switch HP DL380G5 HP DL380G5 MSA2000FC HP DL380G5 LTO3

21 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201021 Migration Installation of Windows2003R2 on HP-Proliant + Service Pack 2 Configuring the MSA2000fc Create virtuell disks of n volumes and create “Shared Disks” as LUNs Install Secure Path Installation of CharonVAX + configuration Installation of VMS7.3-Clusters from scratch

22 NST-IT-Design GmbH CHARON-VAX/Alpha 201022 Benefits: Standardized industry HW with maintenance and support No software migration through emulation of VAXVMS Minimal changes for application and users Consistent and latest VAXVMS-Version Use of new products (ABS instead of SLS,TCP/IP etc…) Increaseof backups (new HW and SW) More memory and much better performance
