4845.0. "VAXELN" by 52907::GUERIN (Connectivity & Computing Services @VBE. DTN 828-5159) Thu Jan 30 1997 11:45

    Is there any VAXELN machine on site that would be available for test
    purposes?
    
    Thanks!

4845.1Any VAX could be usedTAEC::URSCHFri Jan 31 1997 10:428
Hello,

There is no specific VAXELN systems, you need to find a VAX and 
provide a boot node with the VAXELN image to be loaded.

Or do you need specific hardware on the system.

    Jean-Michel,
    
    Thanks for your quick answer...
    
    I don't need any specific hardware.  Only what you just listed as
    necessary to run VAXELN.
    
    My question is, is there is such a VAXELN configuration ready for use on
    site, or will I have to build one?  The first goal is to help evaluating
    the effort for porting some software to that platform, so it would be
    great if we could save the hardware gathering and system mgt. time...
    
    Thanks,

4845.3It's just a boot load imageBBRDGE::LOVELL� l'eau; c'est l'heureSun Feb 02 1997 22:307
    Well all the LPS20's load VAXELN from the network when they boot so
    something must be servicing them on site.  
    
    If you want a pure ELN run-time system unencumbered with printer
    software then I think you'll have to get the kit and set it up on a
    boot server - I sure don't know of any other machines round here
    running ELN.
