| My last probe into this found that DECNDU was not going to be ported to
OpenVMS AXP.
Why do you need it - to load firmare into a DEMFA?

| Strange. (Perhaps you could just run it through the translator...)

960.3 | not an engineering problem | STAR::GAGNE | David Gagne - VMS/LAN Development | Wed May 19 1993 08:37 | 12 |
| I believe it's a matter of just compiling it and linking it because
from what I remember it was written in C. So it should not require
any code changes.
My understanding of the situation is that some other product will be
used to load new firmware so NAC wants to spend no more effort on
NDU. Or ... the final decision on which product will be used to load
firmware has not been made so NAC wants to spend no effort at this time
on NDU.
If you want to load firmware for the DEMFA, send mail to me and I can
probably help you.

960.4 | LFU will support DEMFA | YODA::JEAN | MAUREEN JEAN | Wed May 19 1993 16:51 | 8 |

The latest release of LASER console should have included an LFU that supports
DEMFA updates. Other ALPHA platforms will also ( someday ) include utilities
that will update the other FDDI adapter. ( DEFZA, DEFTA, DEFAA etc...)

960.5 | Which utility for Alpha 3000's ? | LEMAN::BRUNNER | | Wed May 26 1993 11:45 | 10 |
| Hi and thanks for all answers.
My question was about loading DEFCN concentrators on a ring where only
some Alpha Sandpiper 3000-400 and one 3000-500 as server are connected.
That ring is installed and just about to start in production. May be
someday we will have to download the DEFZA's. So what would be the tool
to use ?
Best regards

960.6 | It's being worked on... | PROXY::JEAN | MAUREEN JEAN | Wed May 26 1993 12:38 | 7 |

You can contact John Caporal(leddev::) to find out availability of an Alpha
update utility in that space. But I know it's not available yet....

| I've translated DECNDU just fine and upgraded a DEFZA with no problems.
