The current operating software at GSI has been developed over a period of more than two decades using OpenVMS now on Alpha-Workstations. Parts of this complex software will have to be integrated within the control system of the new FAIR accelerator. To enable future maintenance a migration to Linux is considered a precondition. For porting to Linux a set of libraries and tools has been developed covering the necessary OpenVMS system functionality. The interoperability with FAIR controls applications is achieved by adding a simple but generic middleware interface to access the ported software in a service-like manner from modern Java applications.
