The example configures the CHARON-AXP AlphaServer ES40 system for installation of HP OpenVMS from a distribution CD-ROM (usually it is "\\.\CdRom0/dev/cdrom" if the host has only one CD-ROM drive):

#
# DEC-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 my_disks\bootable.vdisk"
set PKA container[100] = "C:\My my_disks\RZ22.vdisk"
set PKA container[200] = "C:\My my_disks\RZ23.vdisk"
set PKA container[300] = "C:\My my_disks\migration.vdisk"
set PKA container[400] = "C:\My my_disks\fresh_openvms.vdisk"

#
# CD-ROM for HP OpenVMS installation (DQA0)
#

set ide container="\\.\CdRom0/dev/cdrom"

(warning) 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

...

Run CHARON-AXP and boot from the CDROM named "dqa0" ("migration.cfg" is the configuration file we use in this example):

...>$ es40.exe migration.cfg

CHARON-AXP/ES40 for Windows x64 (AlphaServer ES40 6/667), Version 4.6.16603

P00>>>boot dqa0

...

The easiest way is to boot the CHARON-AXP virtualized system on the restored system disk with the network Disabled and configure new addresses, as needed. (info) The NIC can be disabled with a "connection:disabled" statement in the CHARON configuration file.
