This document is the Installation Guide and Release Notes for the Web Services Integration Toolkit (WSIT) for OpenVMS, Version 1.1, released in April 2006.
It provides comprehensive instructions for installing, configuring, and using WSIT to enable OpenVMS applications to integrate with web services. Key aspects covered include:
- System Requirements: Detailed hardware and software prerequisites for OpenVMS I64 (v8.2+) and OpenVMS Alpha (v7.3-2+) systems, including disk space, HP C/C++ (v6.5+), and Java 2 SDK/RTE (v1.4.2-1+). It also specifies necessary user privileges for running out-of-process servers.

- Toolkit Management: Commands for starting, stopping, and uninstalling WSIT.
- Directory Structure: An overview of the toolkit's file organization, highlighting directories for deployment, documentation, libraries, sample applications (in ACMS, C, COBOL, FORTRAN), source code, and development tools.
- Performance Recommendations: Guidance on optimizing Java performance on OpenVMS by adjusting process quotas, such as
PRCLM, Pgfilquo, and bytlm.
- Release Notes: Important updates and known issues for version 1.1, including a workaround for a large STDL file problem on OpenVMS Alpha, instructions for adding
wsirtl.jar to server classpaths, and a list of tools and files renamed since previous field test kits.
