Continue using your software by replacing the hardware

vtAlpha and vtVAX creates a virtual equivalent of your original Alpha or VAX computer on a modern general purpose computer. Your software will recognize that virtual VAX or Alpha as the system it used to run in and can continue to run without modifications.

No changes ⇒ no problems.

Copy the content of the disk from your VAX or Alpha to the virtual system, start it and run it like before.
