Anyone with a spare MMJ cable + RS232 adapter?

by sampsa＠mac.com

Or other sane mechanism for getting a graphical console up on an AS800? I want to add some controllers and drives to CHIMPY? Sampsa

VMS Bound Volume Sets...

by hvlems＠zonnet.nl

Bind sets are hell to restore. Which is probably why Hoff is against them. A RAID controller is a good idea: form shadow sets and stripe them. The Mylex 960 series can handdle RAID volumes up to 36 GB (IIRC). So you'd need another controller. Not all controllers are supported b VMS, e.g.: kZPCC. ------Origineel bericht------ Van: MG Afzender: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE Aan: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Beantwoorden: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Onderwerp: Re: [HECnet] VMS Bound Volume Sets...

And perhaps you need to change the actual time on the system: $ set time="28-AUG-2011" $ set time="21:36" ------Origineel bericht------ Van: gerry77 at mail.com Afzender: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE Aan: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Beantwoorden: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Onderwerp: Re: [HECnet] Noob question: Changing the Time Zone on my VMS boxes?

Noob question: Changing the Time Zone on my VMS boxes?

Having (with some difficulty) connected GORVAX and RHESUS to an Arcsight log monitoring beast (think SAP meets Splunk) I notice all my events' end times are off by a consistent number of hours.. I believe this is due to the time zone info (which I never bothered to look into) being wrong. How do I change the time zone of a VMS box? Sampsa
