    SUPPORTING THE CHINESE, JAPANESE, AND KOREAN LANGUAGES IN THE OPENVMS OPERATING SYSTEM By Michael M. T. Yau ABSTRACT The Asian language versions of the OpenVMS operating system allow Asian-speaking users to interact with the OpenVMS system in their native languages and provide a platform for developing Asian applications. Since the OpenVMS variants must be able to handle multibyte character sets, the requirements for the internal representation, input, and output differ considerably from those for the standard English version. A review of the Japanese, Chinese, and Korean writing systems and character set standards provides the context for a discussion of the features of the Asian OpenVMS variants. The localization approach adopted in developing these Asian variants was shaped by business and engineering constraints; issues related to this approach are presented. INTRODUCTION The OpenVMS operating system was designed in an era when English was the only language supported in computer systems. The Digital Command Language (DCL) commands and utilities, system help and message texts, run-time libraries and system services, and names of system objects such as file names and user names all assume English text encoded in the 7-bit American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) character set. As Digital's business began to expand into markets where common end users are non-English speaking, the requirement for the OpenVMS system to support languages other than English became inevitable. In contrast to the migration to support single-byte, 8-bit European characters, OpenVMS localization efforts to support the Asian languages, namely Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, must deal with a more complex issue, i.e., the handling of multibyte character sets.

  • Disk Management (4 Min) When We Want to Install a Hard Drive in Our System We're Going to Need to Make That Hard Drive Either a Basic Disk Or a Dynamic Disk
    Video – Disk Management (4 min) When we want to install a hard drive in our system we're going to need to make that hard drive either a basic disk or a dynamic disk. A basic disk, which is the default, contains primary and extended partitions as well as logical drives. A basic disk is limited to four partitions. The Windows operating system needs to be installed onto a basic disk. After it's installed the basic disk can then be converted to a dynamic disk. Primary partition. The primary partition contains the operating system. There can be up to four primary partitions per hard drive and a primary partition cannot be subdivided into smaller sections. A primary partition can also be marked as the active partition. The operating system uses the active partition to boot the computer. Only one primary partition per disk can be marked as active. In most cases, the C: drive is the active partition and contains the boot and system files. Meaning the MBR or Master Boot Record Partition Table. Newer systems that use EFI instead of BIOS are using the GPT or GUID partition table. If you're using the GPT instead of the MBR partition table you can have more than four primary partitions on a disk. An extended partition. There can only be one extended partition per hard drive. Once again, primary partitions, active partitions and extended partitions are all part of a basic disk. An extended partition cannot hold the operating system, but it can be subdivided into smaller sections called logical drives.
