Hmmm. I successfully reset that password myself. I was waiting for x86 community license
email from VMS software, inc.
Thanks for let me know.

I didn’t realise this until I saw a posting on r/OpenVMS and realised that OpenVMS E9.2-1
for x86 is now available to Hobbyists.
It’s available via the vms software service portal
https://sp.vmssoftware.com/
if you’ve ever requested licensing from vms software before, you have an account on their
service portal.
If you (like me) have no idea what your password is, just request it to be reset.
Login and go to the “packages” tab. Enter “X86” into the data search field and it pops
up.
X86E9210E.ZIP is the OS download. x86community-20240401.zip is the community licensing,
valid until April 2024.
There are a bunch of layered products available as well.
Cheers, Wiz!!

It runs fine on my gen8 (with KVM/Libvirt)

I've got a Dl360 gen8 I'd love to run this on but it only seems to support gen9
and gen10. It requires a system with UEFI and gen8's have a BIOS. I wonder if you
could get around that with something like DUET...

I too 'snuck' a x86 VMS system on HECnet. It's running under linux and qemu on
a box cobbled together from bits. I'll be moving it to somewhere less ad hoc shortly
and I'll probably try a SCSI-based cluster of two though I'm not sure how qemu
does shared discs.

There is now an OpenVMS/x86 system on HECnet, as I would expect/hope, DECnet Phase IV
seems to be working just fine. It’s routing through my VAX/VMS 5.5-2 system.
