Charon-PAR is a hardware emulation layer running under Linux on industry-standard servers. It emulates a range of historic PA-RISC hardware including HP-3000 and HP-9000 running the MPE/iX 7.5 and HP-UX operating system. This enables existing users of such systems to move to modern Intel-based server hardware.
With the Charon-PAR solution, you can securely transfer your PA-RISC emulator to a state-of-the-art environment. With HP-UX virtualization, Stromasys’ ensures that third-party applications and user-developed software run without modification.
HP recognizes Charon-PAR software as a valid platform to run MPE and HP UX emulator, and Charon-PAR passes the original MPE hardware qualification tests.
The Charon-PAR product family is a range of fully compatible virtualized PA-RISC emulator running on industry-standard Intel x64 (Core i7 and Xeon) servers. PA-RISC Virtualization technology takes advantage of technological advantages since PA-RISC systems were built, translating PA-RISC instructions on-the-fly into optimized sequences of Intel CPU instructions. Charon-PAR servers run 100% unmodified copies of MPE/iX 7.5 and allow you to restore your applications and third-party software onto modern, reliable, high-performance hardware, providing a “best of both worlds” solution.
Charon-PAR provides several virtual hardware families of the PA-RISC that support the following guest operating systems:
