Re: Install OpenVMS Ver. 7.1-1H2

This is OK now. I changed network card to BNC card, and everything is OK.
Thank you very much.

But, I have still a small problem, i must fit keyboard then boot process OK. If I don't fit keyboard then boot process not OK, alarm "keyboard is not plug-in"

The "keyboard is not plugged in" message should not cause any harm. Does it prevent your system/application from correctly starting ?

On VAX, it could cause a license load problem by not correctly loading the workstation license. I'm not sure about Alpha workstation license or DECwindows startup, if the keyboard is not plugged in. What 'fails' ?

Connect a serial console terminal to the COM1 DB9 and switch the SRM console environment variable CONSOLE from GRAPHICS to SERIAL.

Some of the Alpha boxes didn't react all that well when set to GRAPHICS and when all of the requisite pieces were not found. The licenses were (and are) the same, however.

And please consider some on-site help or some custom training, or allocating some time to read the manuals for the ABB product and for OpenVMS. Or both.
