I got VSI I64VMS SAMBA V4.6-5E running on HPE OpenVMS/I64 V8.4 w/8.4 patches in place.
Attempting to install the corresponding VSI SAMBA Alpha kit is a no-go, it rejects
the underlying O/S version detail (V/A 8.4).
Since the prior CIFS/SAMBA from HPE highwatered at underling SAMBA 3.0.28a
VSI's release is a major version jump from 3.x to 4.x. That is especially important
as SAMBA V3.x only supported SMB V1, while later SAMBA V4.x release supports SMB V2 and V3.
Eventually Windows Server PDCs are going to drop SMB V1 support.
