130.0. "CM 1.0 & OSF clients ?" by LYOISA::BRUNET (MultiFred) Wed Nov 17 1993 13:27

    Hi, 
    
    Can CM/ULTRIX 1.0 be used to control remote OSF 1.3 nodes over X25 7WAN ?
    
    Thanks for help

  Yes, but only if you are running one of the supported protocols
  (TELNET, LAT) over your X.25 link.

  Please bear in mind also that you will not be able to halt your
  OSF systems unless they are of the large computer room variety,
  e.g DEC 10000

Cheers,
Phil

130.2HALT ?LYOISA::BRUNETMultiFredWed Nov 17 1993 14:039
    Hi,
    
    What do you mean by "not be able to halt an OSF system " :
    
    - shutdown ?
    - >>>B or any other console command?
    - or power on/off ?
    
    Regards,

  I mean that on some AXP systems (all the workstations and the server
  which share the same system box as the workstations) there is no way
  get to the >>> prompt whilst the OSF is running (apart from pressing
  the halt button on the front of the system) this may cause you a
  problem if you are remotely managing the system from some distance away.
  
  I refer you to note 93.0 and its replies for a discussion on this subject.

Cheers,
Phil
