Re: DTC problem?

Perhaps.

Or, you may need to another reset (or 2) about 17 years from now.

You should be able to get another (for backup purposes) quite easily and cheaply from an HP reseller.

Hello List,
We just had a second occurance of a problem with all terminals connected to our DTC 48. Running an A400 under 7.5 with a network card for PC's connection. However, we still have about 8 dumb terminals connected to a DTC48. Mid day - terminals in use for data entry since morning - suddenly no connection to the HP3000. Cannot break - no command prompt.

Sessions are still running, according to SHOWJOB. From the main console - I ran TERMDSM.DIAG.SYS. Reset the DTC after a DUmp - received a message about File(s) downloaded to the DTC - now all terminals are back in operation.

My question - does this mean that the DTC itself may be going bad? It is, after all - about 17 years old!

Thank you,
Connie
