[comp.sys.dec] Multiprocessing with KA630-AA

rflukes@violet.waterloo.edu (Richard F. Lukes) (08/19/88)

(Urgent request for assistance on multiprocessing with MicroVAX II's.)

I am involved in a project in which we hope to port our own distributed
operating system to a shared memory multiprocessor.  The plan is to use
multiple KA630-AA (MicroVAX II) CPU cards in a Q-bus chassis, as is
described in the KA630-A User's Guide.  The problem is that I have followed
the directions set out in the user's guide but can't get the auxiliary
(second) processor to bootstrap. If anyone out there has any information at
all with doing this sort of thing, please contact me.  In particular, I
would like to know if anyone has *EVER* done this before.
