Note 1236.8 URGENT - CM/Prime Problem - Help! 8 of 8

I am posting this reply for future reference regarding anyone who wants
to control/monitor Prime PRIMOS systems from Digital's POLYCENTER
Console Manager (CM) software.
We successfully executed a Prime shutdown/startup boot cycle by configuring
the DECserver 700 as follows:
1) Configure the DECserver 700 port per the example given in the
DECserver 700 Management manual in the section, "Configuring a Computer
for Access through a TELNET listener".
2) Configure the DECserver 700 port as follows:
local> change port 1 character size 8
local> change port 1 flow control disabled
local> change port 1 parity none
local> change port 1 stop bits 1
3) Configure the DECserver 700 TELNET server software component as follows:
local> change port 1 telnet server transmit character size 7
It works!
Here is a more detailed picture of the complete explanation:
TELNET SERVER SERVER Prime
CLIENT HOST PORT Computer
(Our Unix W/S) (DS700) (DS700 Port) (Console Mode)

Many thanks to all of you who assisted me in this effort!
