I realise this isn't strictly related to hecnet but...
I had a look around the SIMH repo at what looked like the beginnings of the Alpha simulator, particularly the CPU, including the PAL-code emulation for VMS. Relative to the VAX and PDP-11 simulators for example, it looks like there's a lot of work remaining however.
Has it stalled due to lack of time, interest, knowledge.... or is there some 'engineering' issue with its implementation in SIMH that is presenting a hurdle too high currently to pass?

I have a software product for APC UPSs that understands APC's so-called Smart
protocol. It will work for any of the SmartUPS with a serial connector. The
APC also had a mode where one of the serial signals would drop (essentially,
DTR) when the UPS went on battery. Any UPS doing that signaling can easily
be used to shutdown a VMS system using a $QIO monitoring the associated port
on the system.

I speak to machines with the voice of humanity.
As some of you may have just heard, LCM+L are suspending operations "for now" due to the effects of the current crisis. We'll discover what'll be happening to online access to their systems shortly. It's a sad day but hopefully not permanently so.

Good afternoon everyone,
What are you guys doing to get something like OPC$CRASH invoked when a UPS signals it is on battery?
I have serial connectivity to TTAx ports on a Microvax 3100-80 running OVMS 7.3. Recommendations on a UPS?
Generally how do you get a VAX to shut down immediately on UPS going on battery?
Thanks in advance

Nice functionality to arrive so easily at a well-kept updated environment!
Big question now obviously appearing: will TCP/IP follow suit or is that not so suitable concerning the host machine?
Thanks,
Reindert

You're welcome. And have have *lots* of more software. It will just take a lot of time to work through it all and create packages for it.

Similar problem to my own... What version did I now have on that machine? Did I do any updates since I last installed there? What software do I actually have? And where is it...?
> Thanks for this and also thanks for the latest version of your TCP/IP system.
Happy to provide it. And it looks like it has already seen some action, based on the ftp logs at MIM... :-)
