on 02025-11-05a much better, though perhaps somewhat outdated, #Tandem #FAQ with a very good #introduction to Tandem systems. Actually I think the other FAQ I found was a newer or older version of this one; it mentions how “72GB disks are expected in future”, and says “Only recently, with the Pentium,” which probably dates it to about 1996, although another part of the FAQ talks about things that are “scheduled to ship in Q3, 2002”, dating that part to 2001 or 2002. Until the Dxx release, you were limited to 256 processes on a CPU because the PINs were 8-bit; a PID contains the CPU number and the PIN. Enscribe’s disk space allocation scheme sounds fairly manual; a file consists of some small number of physically contiguous extents, and you specify up front how big they will be. suid exists on Tandem, but it’s called PROGID; $PATH exists but is the #PMSEARCHLIST TACL built-in; [foo] is $foo; zombies exist; $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.USERID passwords are crypted with DES, though not by default. Apparently numeric “file codes” are used to identify file types; codes 100 through 999 are reserved for the system. A “persistence manager” process called $ZPM is responsible for restarting “persistent” processes that fail, like svc or init. Root exists, but is called the “super id”.
