SIMH VAX memory weirdness

Sampsa, I'm pretty sure that the 3900 series machines only supported 64MB max and that is what you are emulating. -Steve -----Original Message----- From: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE [mailto:owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE] On Behalf Of Sampsa Laine Sent: Sunday, November 28, 2010 15:41 To: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Subject: Re: [HECnet] SIMH VAX memory weirdness Still only seeing 64 MB in the OS....

I just increased the memory on one of my SIMH VAX VM's to 512 MB from 64 MB - the system boots fine but SHOW MEMORY (under OpenVMS 7.3-1) still reports 64 MB. Do I need to tell the VMS installation about the new RAM somehow? How much RAM does 7.3-1 (VAX) support anyway? Sampsa

Downtime in UU network

by sampsa＠mac.com

Guys, On the same note, my network will be disconnected some time in the near future, I've ordered a change to my DSL service (moving from two lines and a load balanced router to a single bonded connection - should increase down and uplink speeds by roughly a factor of 2). At the moment I've only got a bridge connection to update, but anyone relying on GORVAX's MULTINET tunnel will experience some (hopefully minimal) downtime. Sampsa

dnroute segfaults when starting Multinet...

I downloaded the latest source tarball from http://packages.debian.org/source/sid/all/dnprogs and recompiled everything under lenny. [I must say that the recompile was pretty painless as these things go.] Now I have ziti:/home/bob# dnroute -V dnroute from dnprogs version 2.55 A few things appear different, but sadly dnroute still segfaults after starting Multinet ziti:/home/bob# dmesg | grep -i dnroute [ 94.112034] dnroute[2996]: segfault at 0 ip 0804ac18 sp bfc40f70 error 4 in dnroute[8048000+6000] I notice that the Multinet daemon no longer prints the address of the adjacent node as it did before - don't know if that's significant or if that behavior was just removed. And I also notice that the Multinet daemon now exits (silently, without any message, good, bad or indifferent) shortly after it's started (and presumably shortly after dnroute goes Tango Uniform). Is there a plan B? I don't have a plan B sorry. As I mentioned some time ago, I don't have the resources to maintain DECnet any more :-( Chrissie
