Could someone post the console commands on a VAXstation 4000/Cougar
to do the following:
1. rescan (if thats the right term) the SCSI bus for new
devices,
2. set the boot device to dkaxxx,
3. set the boot to be automatic on power up.
Thanks,
Gim

>>> show device
will scan the bus the for devices if this system behaves like
any other VAX I have worked with.
>>> set boot dkaxxx
will set the boot device and
>>> set halt X
where X is either 0,1,2 or 3. But I cannot remember which is
which. Would have to check manual which is not available right
now.

>> 1. rescan (if thats the right term) the SCSI bus for new

You don't really need to do it. VMS will upon startup. If you want
to be sure, I usually do a TEST SCSI followed by a SHOW DEVICE to make
sure that what I expect to be on the bus is. SHOW CONFIG will also
tell you what is on the bus but you need to update the display with
TEST SCSI first.
>> 2. set the boot device to dkaxxx,
SET BOOT, as you thought. The argument can be a comma separated list
if you'd like, i.e. DKA200,DKA100
>> 3. set the boot to be automatic on power up.
The command is SET HALT, values are:
1 = Automatic RESTART
2 = Automatic REBOOT
3 = Automatic HALT
