Notes
  • The distributed database facility is limited to HP-UX and AIX 5L (excluding the 64-bit-mode HiRDB and POSIX library version of HiRDB). However, versions earlier than 07-02 support the HI-UX/WE2 version of HiRDB. The distributed database facility is supported by this HI-UX/WE2 version of HiRDB.
  • OSI-RDA is used as the protocol.
  • XDM/RD and XDM/RD E2 are referred to collectively as XDM/RD.

1 The distributed database facility can be used between different platforms. For example, a distributed database can be constructed for HP-UX HiRDB and AIX 5L HiRDB.

2 The distributed clients of a distributed database configuration are limited to HP-UX HiRDB.

3 The distributed clients of a distributed database configuration are limited to HP-UX HiRDB.
