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
HP 9000 Series 300/400, Version A.02.00 or later (client
