Обсуждение: Next platform query: Alphaservers under VMS?
Hi guys, Also received a through the Advocacy website asking if anyone has ported PostgreSQL to the AlphaServers under VMS. Anyone know if we run on VMS? Last time I touched VMS (about 10 years ago) it wasn't all that Unix-like. :-) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift -- "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit.

I'm pretty sure we don't. But there are plenty of Linux and *BSD
distros that will run on that hardware.

IIRC, they too have a POSIX layer available.

It used to work under VMS a few years ago, but we no longer have VMS testers, so I doubt it works anymore. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001+ If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania19073
Yeah, it's called cygwin. Oh, you probably meant that miserable excuse for a posix layer MS included when they shipped it. :-) On Tue, 7 Jan 2003, Dave Page wrote: > So does NT iirc ;-) > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Greg Copeland [mailto:greg@CopelandConsulting.Net] > > Sent: 07 January 2003 15:00 > > To: Justin Clift > > Cc: PostgresSQL Hackers Mailing List > > Subject: Re: [HACKERS] Next platform query: Alphaservers under VMS? > > > > > > IIRC, they too have a POSIX layer available. > > > > Greg > > > > > > > > On Tue, 2003-01-07 at 02:44, Justin Clift wrote: > > > Hi guys, > > > > > > Also received a through the Advocacy website asking if anyone has > > > ported PostgreSQL to the AlphaServers under VMS. > > > > > > Anyone know if we run on VMS?
