Re: No signon screen

OK, lots of suggestions. Let me see if I can sort through them all.

Mark: I am not necessarily trying to get this guy to come up as a console. I'd just like to make sure I get a signon screen so that I know everything is working OK BEFORE I scratch this thing. I'd hate to scratch install and not have a console at that point so what I am trying to do is a reality check to make sure that when I really do need it, it will come up.

Phil: When I do a PRTDEVADR on CTL02 I have a single 3476 device called DSP010000.

Scott: No SRC codes. I tried changing the front panel to manual then set the option to 21 and pressed enter (think that is what you meant by forcing DST option 21). No change.

Rob:

- If QCTLSBSD is set to QCTL, make sure that QINTER is running. 

It is, and they have this thing configured with two interactive subsystems: 
QINTER001 and QINTER002.  AS I recall they did this because they had, like, 
1000 devices on QINTER and somehow it reached a maximum so they split the 
subsystem in two.

- Check the station address on the terminal
Address is 0
- Check the port number that you are plugged into
Port is 0

- Check out that the workstation is varied on.

DSP010000 shows varied on.

QCONSOLE shows that DSP010000 is the console name.


More questions arise in my mind though. The DSP010000 value as console tells me that it was originally created on CTL01, correct? CTL01 shows a type of 266C. CTL02 shows a type of 2722 and that is what the twinax "brick" cable is connected to. Perhaps they removed the original hardware for CTL01? There is an empty slot in the back of this thing and I don't see anything indicating a 266C on the back either.

I hate to just "try" a scratch install and hope that I get a console. I want to know all was well before I wipe it clean.....

Thanks,

Pete
