Re: LAT ports to modem has gone inactive
Sry for the late reply, I'm on site 2 days a week.
I can connect to the DECserver-200's. Even thou I still don't have the password i atleast get the "#" prompt for it.
The DECserver-700 just doesn't reply and says that there is no response from that system.
I'll get back when I've plugged in a terminal to the DECserver-700 and seen if has some perculiar things to tell me :P
Thanks for all the replies so far :)
Best regards
Fredrik Eriksson

The default (factory-set) password is: ACCESS
When you get to the point when you need to
SET PRIVILEGED, try: SYSTEM

Re: LAT ports to modem has gone inactive
If they are not cycling, the DECserver is not running. Please report back with what is shown on the LEDs.
If they are, the network connection is probably bad.
Good luck!

Re: LAT ports to modem has gone inactive
The leds are lit, but they're displaying a number alternating between 3 and 4 :/

Re: LAT ports to modem has gone inactive
4 = Requesting load
3 = Load request backoff
Check any OpenVMS systems, which have MOP enabled, whether they are receiving download requests from that DECserver 700. They may not have the desired download file.
There could also be a network problem causing the DECserver-700 download requests not to reach any hosts, which are able to download the requested iamge.

Re: LAT ports to modem has gone inactive
Also you can connect a terminal to port 1 of the server, by default this is the console port.
If you know what the load host should be do a reply/enable on that host. Mop and bootp requests will trigger opcom messages.

Oswald

Re: LAT ports to modem has gone inactive
Before we did this it wasn't accessable anyway. I'll run down and check if there's any network issues with it later today.
Thanks for the suggestions :)

Re: LAT ports to modem has gone inactive
I connected a terminal to the machine (potr 1 as suggested above, and even tried port 2)and that didn't give me much.
I got some jibberish writeout (├Г┬л,├Г┬╝,x about half a screen) every time it switched between 3 and 4 on the little led display.
Any other ideas?
Best regards

Re: LAT ports to modem has gone inactive
the DECserver will send it's messages on Port 1 in clear ASCII text. You may need to adjust the speed of the serial port (default would be 9600 bd) of your terminal/PC.
You need to find an OpenVMS system with the DECserver-700 software installed, and connected to the same LAN as the DECserver-700 - assuming it tries to download it's software image via the MOP protocol.

Re: LAT ports to modem has gone inactive
I'm going to try and get ahold of a laptop and a usb->serial cable and go down there again and this time try with the hyperterminal or something like that.
The DECServer700 is on the same LAN, and I know which machine I'm supposed to try to connect from, that much is in my documentation that the guys managing this before me wrote (thou they forgot some things... like passwords :P).
The NOC group told me that they've been down there now and the port is active and has link. So something else must be the problem... What happens if I do a system reset of it? Does it loose all the configuration made?
