ALLBASE/NET User's Guide

Chapter 1  Getting Started 

ALLBASE/NET is a database access product that provides access to remote
data as though it were stored locally.  It allows the user of an
application on one MPE/iX or HP-UX system to query and update a database
in an ALLBASE/SQL DBEnvironment on another MPE/iX or HP-UX system.[REV
BEG] The remote DBEnvironment must reside on either a HP 3000 Series 900
or a HP 9000 Series 700/800.  ALLBASE/SQL on the HP 3000 must be Version
A.12.0, or later.  ALLBASE/SQL on the HP 9000 must be Version A.03.00, or
later.[REV END]

The following applications can be used with ALLBASE/NET to access a
remote ALLBASE/SQL DBEnvironment: 

   *   ALLBASE/ISQL and ALLBASE Preprocessors
              HP 3000 Series 900, Version A.12.00 or later

              only)
              HP 9000 Series 700/800, Version A.03.00 or later

   *   User-written application programs developed with the following
       releases of ALLBASE/SQL:
              HP 3000 Series 900, Version A.12.00 or later
              HP 9000 Series 300/400, Version A.02.00 or later (client
              only)
              HP 9000 Series 700/800, Version A.03.00 or later

NOTE To determine the version of ALLBASE/SQL and ALLBASE/NET you are using, type the SQLVER.PUB.SYS command at the system prompt.
[REV END] ALLBASE/NET gives users the same SQL functionality provided by the equivalent version of ALLBASE/SQL, with the following exceptions: * DBEnvironments cannot be created remotely. * New log files cannot be created remotely. * Long column data types cannot be used remotely. * The ALLBASE/SQL database administration utilities SQLUtil, SQLGEN, and SQLMigrate cannot access a remote DBEnvironment.
