It's not bad, actually. I'll have to play around with it!
Have fun!
Which simulator?
PDP-11 mainly.
Which OS? I seem to have had issues getting it to idle lately...but
let's just say I do some crazy things.
Definitely RSX and RSTS. Maybe RT-11 and possibly BSD?
Looks like RSX does infact idle correctly. It was just user error.
Fun fact: the RSX-11M+ 4.6 baseline up on ftp.trailing-edge is not infact a /pure/ baseline. ;)
After the move I'll be able to power on the Xserve, which means SIMH,
but I'll also be able to power on some actual VAX hardware, so I'll run
VMS on those. :)
Get a real -11, too! ;)
Now that I have space, I should. :)
Enough for an 11/70? ;)

Not entirely uncommon that people miss. Did you read the manuals, or did you just jump? :-)
Yeah. I followed the install manual. Thought I configured it for an RA81.
Anyway, yes, what you should have done is specify a non-default for maximum number of file headers when you restored the original system to disk using the BRUSYS system.
I THINK I did that...but I was doing so many different installs in SIMH the past few days I could've been thinking of another one.
Anyways, dropped to BRUSYS and copied from DU0 to DU1 in SIMH and had everything copied in 30 seconds. Booting MVII cluster node to copy the new image as we speak.

Well. What command file are you running? I suspect it's PREGEN, which you should not run in this case. You should go directly to NETGEN...
Well, first I gotta get the files on the system disk. ;)

You apparently do not have the right to write to the output directory. So, the obvious question is what your current UIC is when you do this...
(Think of this as the same thing as effective UID under Unix.)
I had made TT0: privileged. The current UIC at the time was...[137,10]. Should I have been in [1,2]?

Yup. Vector on the DHV11 shouldn't conflict with anything else first, though. ;)

DU0: has 889281. blocks free, 87719. blocks used out of 977000.
Largest contiguous space = 478706. blocks
18. file headers are free, 3290. headers used out of 3308.
Well, crap. I must've missed a 0 or something.
