I've been doing OpenVMs support for over 40 years and have now retired.
So, I have an rx2600 I no longer need.
OpenVMS 8.4 Update 10 is installed.
The OpenVMS license (with TCP/IP) is loaded and the HP paper license is included as well.
The license has no expiration date.
A 1.5GHZ CPU with 4GB ram.
Has four 36GB SCSi drives (3 internal, one spare) with Hardware Raid.
The system disk uses 2 of the drives in a Raid 1 configuration, the third is JBOD.
Has a DVD drive, Dual Power Supplies, external SCSI connector, USB ports, 1GB LAN, and 100MB Console port.
Ready for rack mount.
I would like $2,100 for it. Shipping is included to USA, Lower 48 states only.
If interested, send me a PM.
I have some other things I would consider including, we can discuss.
