Course overview
This 2-day course provides the information needed to convert applications to run on the Integrity NonStop systems and the Integrity NonStop BladeSystem. The course starts with an overview of the hardware architectures and then covers program migration information for each of the main languages. Other topics include the debuggers that are available on the new systems including the new Native Inspect debugger, the new linker, the changes to the ETK, the EPE, and the new Code Coverage and Code Profiling tools. Hands-on labs are used at various points to provide reinforcement of the lecture.
Prerequisites

Benefits to you
Streamline application migration tasks and
increase your productivity by knowing where and
how the application needs to be adjusted and
being familiar with how to utilize compilation and
debugging utilities including the eld linker, Native
Inspect, and Enterprise Plugins for Eclipse (EPE)
Gain valuable hands-on experience compiling,
executing, creating, and debugging multiple
source file programs
