Migration Process Guide
Compatibility Mode Operation
During Compatibility Mode operation, the fifth stage of the migration
process, object code files that ran on an MPE V/E-based system are run in
CM on the MPE/iX system, and their results are validated with the
originals.
It is suggested that you thoroughly test the application to ensure valid
results.
Use the Object Code Translator (OCT) in this stage to gain additional
performance for CM applications.
This stage allows for immediate productive use of the 900 Series HP 3000.
Some migration plans may move directly to NM instead of using CM
operation as an intermediate phase. The CM stage is recommended for
users, however, so that program integrity can be verified before moving
to NM. It may involve completing source code changes to remove CM
incompatibilities found during analysis, thus easing NM conversion later.
