(Philip and Simon already knowns about this)
I installed PCM V1.1 EFT4 on ULTRIX V4.3A to test
how CMgr Console lost disabled events works and
to test if I could reproduce same logfile problem
on ULTRIX I reported on VAX/VMS system.
This system is our Console manager systems of
FMS/Remote system management services. To one customer
we have only one connection which is done with
PCM -> TELNET -> Cisco terminal server -> leased async
line -> OPA0:. Cisco terminal server dosen't support
TELNET GETSTATUS option. We have been able to work
with PCM V1.0 but every 10 minutes connection is "lost"
and sometimes CM must be re-started to re-establish
connection.
The "CMgr Console lost disabled" feature of V1.1 sounds very
good. But EFT4 consoled and child deamons didn't run
if system which connected to CISCO was enabled.
I got new consoled image from Philip and Simon to produce
core dump with symbols.
I was able to work around the problem using pseudo device
with command "telnet ciscoserver listernumber"

| 239.1 | Now it WORKS! PCM engineering fixed the problem | EEMELI::OJUSSILA | Olli Jussila, IS/SMGT Finland | Thu Apr 14 1994 20:10 | 22 |
Simon and other PCM engineering people did extreamly good work with
this problem. They provided two times new consoled image within
couple of days and later one fixed this problem.
Now "CMgr Console lost disabled" -event works correctly and
connection works perfectly. With PCM V1.0 we had screen update
problem in TPU at client system which was connected on
Cisco. With V1.1 also TPU editor works correctly.
Even other than DECservers are not supported I belive it
is very important that PCM works also with other Telnet terminal
servers.
Thanks,
-Olli

Olli,
thanks for the vote of confidence.
I agree with your comment in the last paragraph of your note. We will always try
to make our product work with othe peoples servers, but when we don't have
access to them it is rather difficult. So in return thanks to you for helping us
work this one out.
Cheers Simon....
