Our 11/44 installation, running UN*X v7/2.8 apparently received a non-working version of INGRES on the Berekely distribution tape. The documentation included, however, informs us that there is absolutely no support available. Since the source of out distribution tape is somewhat of a mystery to us, we do not seem to have any sort of leverage toward getting this problem fixed. Are there are any other users who have experienced this problem, or who can suggest where we turn for assistance? (The problem seems related to the command parsing grammar). Thanks in advance.....

*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** Does anyone have information on the performance differences running INGRES under VMS and UNIX (specifically ULTRIX)? We currently have an INGRES application running on a VAX 11/750 under VMS 4.1. The system configuration is 2 meg of physical memory, 1 RM80, 1 RM05, no FPA. Since this system is used exclusively for this particular application, we don't care what operating is used, only that the machine can perform the task. Since we do not have any UNIX systems in-house, it would be useful to us to have the benefit of others' experience in this area. I realize that this system is under configured for the application, but before it is upgraded a determination of which operating system to use would be realistic. All information will be summarized to the net. Ed Orton Mitel Corporation 350 Legget Drive P.O. Box 13089 Kanata, Ontario K2K 1X3 Phone: (613) 592-2122 Mail: utcsri!{orton | ego!ed}
