Lisa, thanks for the followup. I just received email from Oracle, and it sounds like we're going to set up a conference call with a couple of people in Oracle's DEC products group.

We're using OpenVMS AXP 6.1 on a 7000-620 dual-processor Alpha VAX (512Mb RAM).

I'm pretty interested in the 2100 servers - heard a lot of good reviews, and they're definitely economical. One question I have at this point is:
Are the larger servers like ours tuned as general-purpose machines (Pathworks, VAX apps, etc.) ?? Is the 2100 tuned as a database server ? The ads certainly seem to confirm this. Are there steps we can take to optimize our 7000 for Oracle??
