As you mention its a RX---- that means to me a itanium architecture which I am not familiar with ( only had one box and wasnt me that did the install...) I have no idea how the licensing works in such case, but it seemed to me that it depends more on the products ( which of course can depend on how many cores...), to my knowledge a basic core OS for scientific use was almost free (came with the box... and CD was free of code ) but once you had mission critical server etc... you pay a lot... now its more what do you have in each bundle
Core OS is as its name mentions all the OS but without any optional ... Important? well depends your expectations, you have all the HP-UX but without what can be (very ) useful when you talk about production box: e.g. you wont have mirror-ux nor online-JFS etc...
You cant survive as a production box without VG00 on 2 separate disks in mirror ( my point of vue...)
having to unmount filesystems ( and so interrupting users/applications access ...) to modify the logical volume or filesystem will rapidly get on your nerve not mentioning the case of /var where you will almost have to go single user...
I remember some bundles were for java/web servers but not sure that it was at extra cost and some for RDBMS ( maybe included some extra C libraries to compile or link oracle stuff... When you add HA packages is when all gets expensive as clusters are not cheap... and virtualisation options....

I used to order systematically the mission-critical OS bundle which comprises those 2 options plus maybe others to me not that important but there in case...

glutbuttonboxfunc

glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT)					       GLUT						  glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT)

NAME

       glutButtonBoxFunc - sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window.

SYNTAX

       #include <GLUT/glut.h>

       void glutButtonBoxFunc(void (*func)(int button, int state));

ARGUMENTS

       func	 The new button box callback function.

DESCRIPTION

       glutButtonBoxFunc  sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window. The dial & button box button callback for a window is
       called when the window has dial & button box input focus (normally, when the mouse is in the window) and the user generates dial  &  button
       box button presses. The button parameter will be the button number (starting at one). The number of available dial & button box buttons can
       be determined with glutDeviceGet(GLUT_NUM_BUTTON_BOX_BUTTONS). The state is either GLUT_UP or GLUT_DOWN indicating whether the callback was
       due to a release or press respectively.

       Registering  a  dial & button box button callback when a dial & button box device is not available is ineffectual and not an error. In this
       case, no dial & button box button callbacks will be generated.

       Passing NULL to glutButtonBoxFunc disables the generation of dial & button box button callbacks. When a new window is created,  no  dial  &
       button box button callback is initially registered.
