I have Galaxy set to log DECnet events. For what it's worth, every so
often I see the following on my Tops-20 console:
23:19:48 -- DECnet link message --
Communication failure to the following nodes:
28NH
Since January 16^th of 2021 (last year), it's happened as 44 times on
TOMMYT:: Sometimes it's frequent over a few days, sometimes I can go
months without seeing them. For example, nothing since July. I'm not
sure this has anything to do with the RSTS failure mode. Absent further
information, I'm more inclined to believe that Tops-20 isn't handling a
close properly or something has decided to time out. Aside from the
below, I don't have additional data (all times Eastern)

It's possible that SPEAR could get some more information on this; I
haven't looked.
