[comp.os.vms] Console Media

toshio@dhw68k.cts.com (George Toshio Suematsu) (01/02/88)

I'm interested in modifing the console media (PRO 380) on my 8700 from VMS.
I have been doing this with the earier VAXen via EXCHANGE.  Does the 
capability exist on the 8700?

I'm also interested in having my 8700 re-boot automatically.

Thanks,
George Toshio

Just type "exit" at the >>> prompt and you will drop back to
Pro/DOS or some funky operating system or other.  It
includes an editor that you can use to change the boot
command files or even create your own.  It's been awhile but
I think the obvious command, i.e., "edit filename", worked.

This is easy.  Just set the auto_restart and auto_boot
flags.
