We run 4.2bsd on a Vax11/780. We have 4 DEC dz's and 2 Emulex DMF-32's on a single Unibus. The problem we're running into is that the getty's on the DMF's start to die off. I can re-initialize them only by shutdowning the system down or editing /etc/ttys to disable the ports which have died, doing a kill -1 1, and then re-edit ttys to enable the ports with another kill -1 1. Trying to initialize the ports with a kill -1 1 prior to editing the file does not work. The getty's die off at random times and on random ports. The DZ's are fine. Does anyone know of a driver bug or had this problem themselves? Does anyone have a more reasonable solution to reactive these ports?
