OpenVMS installation instructions for VMWare Workstation

Post by mfny » Fri Apr 14, 2023 10:34 am

Hello,

Would anyone be able to provide instructions as to how to set up a VM for OpenVMS in VMware Workstation, I am only able to find VirtualBox instruction at this time.

In particular what configuration should I have for hard drives and serial port ..

Wow! Than you, that worked. It's really very simple once you have the correct commands. I've never even heard of PuTTY before, but I downloaded the msi, installed it, and was up and running in no time. I used to know VAX/VMS inside out, and my particular expertise was systems management, security and DCL. Alas I've forgotten almost everything, so it's going to be fun learning again.
