I-VMS Software, ethenge amalungelo okuqhubeka nokuthuthukisa isistimu yokusebenza ye-OpenVMS (Virtual Memory System) kwa-Hewlett-Packard, inikeze abathanda ithuba lokudawuniloda ichweba lesistimu yokusebenza ye-OpenVMS 9.2 yesakhiwo se-x86_64. Ngokungeziwe kufayela lesithombe sohlelo (X86E921OE.ZIP), okhiye belayisense ye-edishini yomphakathi (x86community-20240401.zip) banikezwa ukuze badawunilode, bavumeleke kuze kube ngu-April ngonyaka ozayo. Ukukhishwa kwe-OpenVMS 9.2 kumakwe njengokukhululwa kokuqala okugcwele okutholakalayo kwesakhiwo se-x86-64.
Imbobo ye-x86 yakhelwe phezu kwekhodi yomthombo ye-OpenVMS efanayo njengoba isetshenziswe ezinguqulweni ze-Alpha ne-Itanium, kusetshenziswa ukuhlanganiswa okunemibandela ukuze kuthathelwe indawo izici eziqondene nehadiwe. I-UEFI ne-ACPI zisetshenziselwa ukutholwa kwezingxenyekazi zekhompuyutha kanye nokuqalisa, futhi ukuqala kabusha kwenziwa kusetshenziswa idiski ye-RAM esikhundleni somshini wokuqalisa we-VMS oqondene nehadiwe. Ukuze ulingise amazinga elungelo le-VAX, i-Alpha ne-Itanium angekho awekho ezinhlelweni ze-x86-64, i-OpenVMS kernel isebenzisa imojuli ye-SWIS (Software Interrupt Services).
Uhlelo lokusebenza lwe-OpenVMS lwakhiwe kusukela ngo-1977, lusetshenziswa ezinhlelweni ezibekezelela amaphutha ezidinga ukwethembeka okwengeziwe, futhi phambilini belutholakala kuphela kuzakhiwo ze-VAX, Alpha kanye ne-Intel Itanium. Isithombe sesistimu singasetshenziselwa ukuhlolwa emishinini ebonakalayo ye-VirtualBox, KVM kanye ne-VMware. I-OpenVMS 9.2 ihlanganisa izinsiza zesistimu ye-VSI TCP/IP (isibonelo, kukhona ukusekelwa kwe-SSL111, OpenSSH ne-Kerberos), amasethi okusekela i-VSI DECnet Phase IV kanye ne-VSI DECnet-Plus protocol, i-MACRO, Bliss, FORTRAN, COBOL, C++, C kanye noPascal.
