The example configures the CHARON-AXP MicroHP Alpha 3600 AlphaServer ES40 system for installation of HP Alpha/VMS OpenVMS from a distribution CD-ROM (usually it is "\\.\CdRom0" if the host has only one CD-ROM drive):
#
# First RQDX3 controller on address 772150 with addition of 3 units: a disk for HP Alpha/VMS, storage disk and CD-ROM drive
#
load RQDX3/RQDX3 DUA address=017772150
set DUA container[0DEC-KZPBA SCSI controller is mapped to 5 disk containers; one of them (DKA300) - for migration purposes;
# another one (DKA400) - for installation of fresh HP OpenVMS system from distributive
#
load KZPBA PKA scsi_id = 7
set PKA container[0] = "C:\My disks\bootable.vdisk"
set PKA container[100] = "C:\My disks\rz23RZ22.vdisk"
set DUA PKA container[1200] = "C:\My disks\rz24RZ23.vdisk"
set DUA PKA container[2300] = "C:\My disks\new_vms_system.vdiskmigration.disk"
set DUA PKA container[3400] = "C:\My disks\backupfresh_storageopenvms.vdisk"
set DUA container[4]
#
# CD-ROM for HP OpenVMS installation (DQA0)
#
set ide container="\\.\CdRom0"

DUA3 DKA300 will be the disk where all the source disks will be copied, so its size needs to be big enough to store all the disk backup images
Create an empty disk image for installation of HP Alpha/VMS OpenVMS and another one for storing backups from the source HP Alpha system as it is shown in the section above.
Run CHARON-AXP and boot from "dua4dqa0" ("migration.cfg" is the configuration file we use in this example):
