Volume Shadowing in OpenVMS is a form of host-based Raid level 1. Essentially two or more identical disk volumes are "mirrored" or "shadowed" resulting in a single "shadow set" volume. Any data written to one disk volume is also automatically written to the others. Shadowing within an OpenVMS Cluster is unique in that the various component volumes of the shadow set can be located on different OpenVMS hosts and even in separate geographical locations. The disk volumes which are members of the shadow set can be single direct-attached disks, RAID-0 stripesets on attached storage controllers or even virtual disk volumes on SAN storage arrays. Additionally, OpenVMS supports booting from shadowed system disks for even greater availability.

This varies widely from one OS to another.
As with many other things it is commonly whatever the market will bear, as in general a computer without an operating system won't do much useful work.
However there are opensource OSs (e.g. Linux, OpenVMS) that can be obtained free or at very low cost.

The samba software package implements the netbios protocol which is used by Microsoft Windows Lan Manager under TCP/IP to share files. Samba is open software and available free for non-windows platforms such as linux, unix and OpenVMS. Properly configuring samba makes Unix folders appear as shared folders on a Windows system.

PHP is supported under OpenVMS Alpha 7.3-2 and later (and perhaps earlier as well). There are a few flakes in the package, though, that make it difficult to use properly for some applications, such as running MediaWiki software. PHP comes with the Compaq (now HP) Secure Web Server package, which includes Apache ported to VMS. See the Related Link "HP: CSWB for VMS" for more information.

The file extension .opt is commonly associated with various applications, but it is primarily used for configuration or options files. One notable program that uses this extension is the OpenVMS operating system, where .opt files may contain options for system configuration. Additionally, some software applications use .opt files to store user preferences or settings. Always check the specific software documentation for precise usage.

When I worked with DEC/Compaq/HP OpenVMS systems, I wrote a generic routine to read the magnetic tape header information when an operator loaded a tape to be read for a production job. Each tape provider would put a unique label in the header. My routine would return that label which would then be compared to what a known good tape label would be. If it matched, the job proceeded. If not, the operator was given an OpCom message that they had to reply to.

Stability is difficult to measure in absolutes. A good measurement as to the stability and reliability of an operating system is the record of the highest "uptimes." Uptimes are the length of time a system has been running without the need for a reboot. Note that other factors, such as natural disasters or power outages may have a bearing on uptime not related to stability.
The absolute highest uptime recorded is 18 years, by an OpenVMS server. A nicely updated competition of uptimes can be found in the "Related links" below. A rough summary of uptimes, from highest to lowest, is:
1. Linux
2. FreeBSD
3. Windows
4. Mac OS X
5. Sun / Solaris

The linux operating system is available for almost any hardware platform. Not only is it available for any platform that runs Microsoft windows. It is available also for any hardware that runs OpenVMS, (VAX, Alpha, Itanium), for the Apple computer, IBM power platform and IBM Mainframe.
Since the full source of the system software is openly available, anyone interested and capable can modify it to run on any system.

No. Linux, Unix, Windows, and Mac OS, OpenVMS, Z/os, IBM i are all examples of operating systems.
Operating system software is what you see when you turn on your computer and wait for the computer to go through its Initial Program Loading (IPL) process reading software from a designated device, and going through the process of setting things up so it can process user requests.
Application software would be a programs that are used to perform tasks and jobs requested by a user. Sometimes these do turn themselves on at startup automatically - like antivirus software.

The only real high end operating system runs on the IBM mainframe system now named IBM system Z. The actual system software is called Z/OS. It is used in banks and large corporations and has been around in various incarnations since the 1960's. The IBM system Z also runs Linux.
Also high end are:
The IBM power platform runs the IBM I system (a descendant of the IBM system/38 and AS/400), a corporate branch workhorse. It also run IBM AIX (a version of original unix) as well as Linux.
The HP OpenVMS system, known for its security features, stability and long uptime runs on the Intel Itanium platform which also runs a HP-UX (a version of unix) and Linux.

In general the only difference between commands, or instructions, and data is the context in which each appears. If the CPU is fetching the contents of memory to get the next instruction, then it assumes that the Program Counter register points to commands. If the CPU is executing an instruction that needs to fetch data from memory, the data at the address specified by the instruction are fetched, assuming that the address points to data.
This is what allows a program to be loaded into memory in the first place; the part of the operation system responsible for this operation treats the program as data, loading it into memory as instructed in the file. Then the OS branches to a specified place within that memory and begins fetching instructions there.
This blurring between instructions and data has also been used in the past to allow a program to modify itself as it executes. This is usually considered poor practice; some operating systems, such as HP's OpenVMS, even set up memory page protections to keep this from happening.

There is no correct answer without qualifying which multiuser systems are being discussed. All modern operating systems have inherited traits and abilities from other older multiuser systems. There are multiple multiuser operating systems currently in use. IBM has their mainframe system (Z/os) as well as IBM i, both multiuser systems are unique from each other and from other systems. IBM also has AIX, a descendant of unix. Current unix systems go back to the original proprietary AT&T unix implementation in the 1970's and 1960's. Unix itself was modeled after a multiuser system called Multics. Linux was modeled after unix but written independently of it. Microsoft Windows NT was designed by Dave Cutler who brought his experience in developing OpenVMS with him. All other Microsoft Window implementations follow from that.

If your talking about the operating system of a PC then it depends. Some computers come with the preinstalled OS itself. Usually computers have the Windows OS and there are different versions of Windows as well. XP, Vista and seven are the latest and most commonly used windows OS at the moment worldwide. Apple computers come with the preinstalled MAC leapord OS and unlike other computers those computers cant be booted with any other OS other than the MAC OS itself.
Then there are the machines that are not personal computers:
- There are IBM mainframes which run the Z/OS system. It will also run linux.
- There are the IBM power systems which run AIX (a version of unix), Linux, and IBM i operating System.
- There is the OpenVMS system, originally by Digital Equipment Corporation, bought by Compaq, then bought by HP which licensed its development exclusively to VMS Software Inc. (VSI). Latest versions runs on Intel Itanium architecture.
- There are many flavors of unix by different companies for different platforms (machines).

Yes, IBM released OS2, I don't know if it still exists as a commercially viable product. Intel released iRMX which was an incredible "real time" operating system that was great for process control, but again I don't know if it's still available. QNX is an excellent operating system for distributed processing and is currently available. I'm sure there are may other operating systems that specialize in their own niche.
There are many operating systems beside the ones mentioned. Many are no longer marketed but may still be in use as the hardware is still working and doing its job.
Digital Equipment Corporation (now part of HP) used to sell the PDP-8 and PDP 12 (they ran tss-8, ps/8 and os/8), PDP-10 and PDP-20 (ran TOPS-10 and TOPS-20), PDP-11 (ran DOS-11, RT-11, RSTS). I believe the PDP-11 is still being used to manage some nuclear plants and there is much discussion as to whether they should leave it or switch to a modern system. They are also still selling (by another company) OpenVMS which used to run on VAX hardware, then ALPHA hardware and is now available on an Intel Itanium. The OpenVMS system is one of the first systems to actually be part of a network, and part of the internet when it was called arpanet. It also has the reputation of being one of the most secure systems around and the longest up time between software crashes.
IBM has their mainframe that first came out in the 1960's running a system called OS/360, then OS/370 and now called system Z. It is a popular secure workhorse at large banking and financial institutions. The mainframe also runs a version of linux. IBM also has the power systems which runs AIX (a version of the real unix), IBM i, and also a version of linux.
There are many other companies that are no longer around and their software systems have been abandoned or absorbed and incorporated into modern systems.

YES, Windows, Linux, etc...
you have to first get the CD for the OS you wish to install...then restart your PC and alternate between F9,F11, and delete...this will take you to a screen where you can edit your BIOS...find the boot sequence and change the first one to boot from CD...insert the CD you wish to install and restart your PC...after awhile it should load up the CD and allow you to install the new OS
(you can even dual boot if you defrag, learn to split your Hard Drive into partitions, and then get a program such as grub or lilo boot loader).original
It would depend on the operating system. Proprietary systems such as Microsoft windows, Z/OS, IBM i, OpenVMS, AIX as well as other licensed UNIX implementations can only be installed and run on the machines for which they were intended and licensed. Anything else will not work because of the differences in the hardware and may also be in violation of the End-User-License.
Open source systems such as Linux do not have this problem. It is already available for may hardware platforms and the source code is freely available for anyone interested in implementing it on other machines.

There are several reasons:
- different operating systems often use different incompatible file systems, some of which (e.g. VAX VMS, OpenVMS, UCSD p-System, MAC OS) supported file types that were not supported by other file systems
- different operating systems sometimes use different character sets (e.g. ASCII, EBCDIC, FIELDATA, DEC Radix-50, VISCII, CDC display code)
- different operating systems often ran on hardware using different incompatible voltages for the logic levels
- different operating systems often used different physically incompatible storage media (e.g. 7 track half inch magnetic tape, 8 track half inch magnetic tape, one inch magnetic tape, many different magnetic tape cartridges, multiplatter removable hard disks, 14 inch removable single platter hard disks, 8 inch floppy disks, 5 inch floppy disks, 3 inch floppy disks) and disks might be either hard sectored or soft sectored as another incompatibility
- etc.

Disk operating system DOS is a computer operating system using line instruction. For a computer system use disk drive as secondary memory. A Windows system is a computer operating system with Graphic User Interface GUI instead of line instruction.
There is no difference between them other than what the vendor or creator wants it to be. A disk operating system is a system based on being run from a disk drive. Typically disk operating systems were single user and single task systems. Predecessors to DOS used cards, magnetic or paper tape as as input, output or main storage device. Successors that relinquished the DOS title had multiprocessing, multiuser, realtime or windowing capabilities and were given other names such as OS/360, RT-11, Windows, multics, unix, linux and more.
All modern systems are disk based, unless they use solid state drives (SSD), so all are disk operating systems. Microsoft windows as well as unix, linux, OpenVMS all have a windows interface so they can all be windows operating systems but only microsoft makes that claim.

An operating system is a generic term for software that interfaces and buffers between the users and user application programs and the computer hardware which includes memory, disk drives, etc.
It can be as simple as the old(er) named Disk Operating System (MSDOS, PCDOS, DRDOS, DOS-11, DOS/360, etc) and Tape operating system (TOS) which had no restrictions on what a running program could do but loaded programs into memory, start them, and did respond to requests by programs for system functions such as finding, reading and writing files.
It can be as complex as a multiuser, multiprogramming, multiprocessing system where it manages memory, CPU(s), device assignment, security, communications and other functions as in Z/OS. IBM I, OpenVMS, Unix implementations, Linux, or Windows.
It is software. You can install and uninstall operating systems as you like, without changing any hardware inside your computer.
The operating system is the system your using such as Microsoft's Windows versions (Windows XP, Windows vista, Windows 7, etc.), Apples Mac OS X snow leopard, Linux distributions.
The OS is a system software which provides services for application software. The OS controls Hardware and software like MS word, Photoshop and wordpad.
It is the software of your system that allows you to do pretty much everything. Run programs, go onto the Internet or even look at pictures.
The Operating system is a software consisting of programs and data that runs on computers and manages the hardware resources and also provides a platform for various application software.
An operative system is software serving as a foundation for processes on your computer. The operating system undertakes memory management and important security and stability enhancing tasks that is required for other software to run correctly. Computer hardware often differ in design and function and part of the operative systems's job is to minimize the design work needed by the other layers software to support each type of hardware.

Hardware is the physical computer equipment including its box or case, everything in the case and accessories (devices) attached to it: The motherboard, fans, wires, memory, hard drive; graphic, sound and other cards; the monitor, keyboard, mouse, scanners, printers,
Software is the name that evolved for everything in the computer that is not hardware. It includes programs including the operating system, utilities, application programs, games, libraries and related data.
Software is installed and stored in the computer on a storage device such a hard drive. It can also be modified, updated, or deleted from there.
Software is loaded into memory where it is executed by the rest of the computer hardware to accomplish the function it was designed to do.
Software is the programs on the computer that tells the hardware what to do. It includes the Operating Systems (Windows, unix, OpenVMS, aix, OS X, IBM i, Z/os, linux), and programs for computers (Microsoft Office, Internet Explorer, VLC Media Player and Calculator).
software is used to communicate between hardware and user.
Media are the things that carry and hold data and software outside of the computer: diskette, external hard drives, CD, DVD, SD card, USB card, paper.
The computer program you receive on a CD is not hardware, it's software.
As a human analogy, hardware is like your physical brain and software is the thoughts in your brain.
Hardware is all of the physical elements that make up a computer system. Software is the non-tangible computer programs inside of the hardware.
hardware: a part of computer that is tangible (can be touch).
monitor, CPU, AVR, mouse, keyboard, headset, wires, etc.
soft ware: a part of a computer that is not tangible.

Ah, what a lovely question! The main difference between a standalone computer and one connected via a LAN is that a standalone computer works independently, like a lone tree in a field, while a LAN-connected computer can communicate and share resources with other computers on the network, like a beautiful garden where all the flowers work together to thrive. It's all about that sense of connection and collaboration that makes a LAN-connected computer a part of something bigger and more wonderful.
