Hi, I am interested in whether or not anyone has any non-DEC communications
gear ( Ie Able,emulex,etc...) on a VAX 8800 Unibus, or for that matter any
DEC gear such as DZ's. DEC supposedly doesn't support other than DHU11,
DMF32, DMZ32 whereas I want to add DZ11's and Able VMZ32's.
Thank-you.

We have been able to use our VMZ32's on the UNIBUS in our 8500 which is
a BI machine like the 8800. We are also using an Excelan Ethernet board
for TCP/IP which is also working.
Note, however, that our machine is lightly loaded at this point. We're
not sure what will happen when we get all the users on it. We run about
30-40 users simultaneously doing financial/purchasing applications and
text processing.
Our Interlan Ethernet board does not work at this time. We're not sure
why.
