The serial# from this system is NI833053xx (can't be too specific or somebody might pinch the number to make bogus support calls, right?) :-) This is from the show config: Firmware SRM Console: V6.8-41 ARC Console: 5.65 PALcode: VMS PALcode V1.20-14, OSF PALcode V1.22-17 SROM Version: v5.90 Processor DECchip (tm) 21164A-2 Pass 433 MHz 96 KBytes SCache 0 MB BCache PYXIS ASIC Pass 257 MEMORY Memory Size = 192Mb Bank Size/Sets Base Addr ------ ---------- --------- 0 64Mb 08000000 1 128Mb 00000000 BCache Size = 0Mb Tested Memory = 192Mbytes PCI Bus Bus 00 Slot 03: Digital Semiconductor 21143 Network Controller ewa0.0.0.3.0 00-00-F8-76-24-67 Bus 00 Slot 07: Cypress PCI Peripheral Controller Bus 00 Slot 07: PCI IDE Bus 00 Slot 07: PCI IDE dqb0.0.0.207.0 TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-62 Bus 00 Slot 07: PCI USB Bus 00 Slot 11: Digital TGA2 Graphics Controller Bus 00 Slot 20: DECchip 21152 PCI to PCI Bridge Bus 01 Slot 04: ISP1040 Scsi Controller pka0.7.0.1004.0 SCSI Bus ID 7 dka0.0.0.1004.0 RZ1CB-BS mka500.5.0.1004.0 TLZ09 ISA Slot Device Name Type Enabled BaseAddr IRQ DMA 0 0 MOUSE Embedded Yes 60 12 1 KBD Embedded Yes 60 1 2 COM1 Embedded Yes 3f8 4 3 COM2 Embedded Yes 2f8 3 4 LPT1 Embedded Yes 3bc 7 5 FLOPPY Embedded Yes 3f0 6 2 6 EIDE Embedded Yes 1f0 14 3f6 15 170 376 7 ES1888 Embedded Yes 220 5 1 5 8 USB Embedded Yes 10 > You will need to get the specific type of system and configuration > checked to see that it works with OpenVMS.

How do we specify a halt or reset at the console? Is there a console variable that configures this?
