1503.0. "Messy output on an Alpha 8200" by STKAI1::MALM (My God! It's full of stars...) Thu Mar 20 1997 01:55

Hi!

A customer complains and say that PCM doesn't work properly when connected
to an Alpha 8200.

He's running DUNIX 3.2G on the PCM system and on the monitored Alpha 8200.
The console is connected through a DS900, using Telnet.

The problem is that when the console cable is disconnected/reconnected or
the system is rebooted, the console output get's messed up... There are
just <LF>'s in the end of the line, no <CR>'s. Also, there's some <BEL>'s
comming all the time. The only way to get PCM to act normal again is to do
a reconfigure.

He has tried the same thing on other, and older, DECstations without
noticing the same problem.

I've had a look at topic 827.* but I don't really recognice my problem in
that topic, but I'm not shure.

Any hints?

1503.1What version of PCM and Term Server?CSC32::MEREOSMon Mar 24 1997 11:3210
    What version of PCM?  (need the minor version also)
    
    You can get this with the console status command, its next
    to ENS...
    
    Also not a bad idea to post the terminal server port settings,
    and the version of the terminal server software.
