Appendix I  Using the Migration Planning Tool 

MPT is used in conjunction with its companion Migration Toolset
utilities, RTM and OCA, during the analysis and planning stage of the
migration effort.  MPT runs on MPE V/E-based systems.  Included in this
appendix are discussions on the following subjects:

   *   "Migration Planning Tool Operation" provides a general overview of
       MPT. This section is reference in nature.

   *   "Generating an Installed Products Report" provides instructions on
       how to generate a listing of Hewlett-Packard software products
       installed on your system.

   *   "Creating the Migration Planning Tool Database" describes how to
       use MPT programs to create the MPT database required by the MPT
       report-generation program.

   *   "Defining User Migration Options" describes how you can instruct
       MPT to analyze MPE V/E files according to which MPE/iX environment
       (for example, CM) you want them to migrate to.  The results of the
       analysis are important for determining accurate MPE/iX disk space
       requirements for your particular system.

   *   "Generating Migration Planning Reports" provides instructions on
       how to generate six types of migration planning reports.

   *   "Evaluating Migration Planning Reports" describes the formats and
       contents of the six types of migration planning reports.  This
       section is reference in nature.

   *   "Running the Migration Planning Tool in Batch Mode" provides
       instructions on how to use a provided job stream file to create
       the MPT database and generate reports.

   *   "Migration Planning Tool Program Error Messages" provides a
       comprehensive list of program error messages returned by MPT.
