Depending in the interpretation of "covered", there are a few
hits on "OpenVMS" suing the search tool in the agende (but you have
looked, right ?). I find it somewhat interesting that OpenVMS is
mentioned in the abstract for the track keynote for "Business
Critical Systems".


- Shaping the future of mission critical computing

This must-see keynote session will focus on the progression of a mission
critical Converged Infrastructure in your data centre. While advancements
have been made to eliminate IT silos, you still face the dilemma of
implementing either special-purpose, mission-critical, or industry
standard general-purpose servers. In this session we will offer advice
on how to make the right decision. We will describe how HP can help you
take a mission-critical Converged Infrastructure to the next level with
a common modular architecture and innovations in Integrity servers,
Integrity NonStop servers, scale-up x86 ProLiant servers and
HP-UX/OpenVMS.

Session Type: Track Keynote

- OpenVMS at Volvo Cars with HP Converged Infrastructure technologies,
- Integrity BladeSystems, EVA storage and HP monitoring

This session describes how OpenVMS is used in the car assembly plant at
Volvo Cars in Gent, Belgium, where the Volvo C30, S40, V50, S60 and XC60
are produced. The welding plant joins steel plates to form the car body.
In the paint shop, these bodies receive various paint and protective
coatings. Finally, in the assembly shop, the car body becomes a real
quality car. Daily more than 1,200 Volvo cars are assembled using HP
OpenVMS Clusters on Integrity Servers.

You will learn:
• How Java & Fortran applications, web servers and databases used in the
factory are deployed on HP Blade servers with OpenVMS 8.4 , EVA storage
and HP Thin Clients.
•The integration of applications hosted in a HP Converged Infrastructure.
•Which features on OpenVMS enable agile and rapid service delivery?
•How can IT Infrastructure be shared by many applications and managed as
a service?
•To guarantee an uptime of more than 99.99 % for these mission critical
systems in a shared environment, it is important that the complete
environment is proactive monitored by HP CockpitMgr.
