1738.0. "Minimze WSA device on boot nodes" by RUTLND::POLCARI (John Polcari,APO1/C11,289-1704) Wed Nov 15 1989 09:55

    
    
    	I was wondering if someone could  help me. I am running clock 
    and fileview on the boot nodes. Everytime I run I have to type in
    set display/create/node=     , and when I do this I keep creating 
    WSA devices. I am up to about 40 of them and there is only to 
    people using this remote process. I was wondering is there anyway
    to get rid of the WSA device or to minimize the WSA device, if I 
    decide to delete the clock and then readd it I don't want to keep 
    creating the WSA device.

	On each boot node, just do a set display/create once. THen do as many set display/node=xxxx as you like. Should fix it... q

	If you'd like the WSA devices to disappear when the process terminates, then see also note 1634.2 Paul.

	With V5.3 of DECwindows, WSA devices created with a simple SET DISP/CREATE will go away when the process terminates. No more hoops to jump through to get the right thing to happen.
