7.2.5The VER Command
When your computer boots, all of the keyboards connected to active terminals are
"locked," preventing any signals from those keyboards from interfering with the booting
process. You need to use the VER command to unlock the keyboard of each terminal
defined in your initialization file. See the example in Appendix A.
7.3MOUNTING DISKS
The computer automatically mounts the System Disk (DSK0:) for you at the time of
computer start-up. If you wish the computer to mount other disks as well, you have two
options: You can include a MOUNT command for each disk logical unit, or you can
specify the device name only (with a colon) and MOUNT will automatically mount all its
logical units for you. For example, either of the following formats can be used:
MOUNT DSK1:
MOUNT DSK2:
MOUNT DSK3:
MOUNT SUB0:
MOUNT SUB1:
or
MOUNT DSK:
MOUNT SUB:
The device-name-only format of MOUNT (as in the second example above) works only
with SCSI drives.
You MUST mount a disk before you can read or write data to it.
Never mount a disk while another user is using it
, or you might damage the bitmap.
7.4SETTING UP EVENT LOGGING
Alpha Micro offers an event-logging utility program called LOGGER that runs on a
background job and keeps a record of system events such as system errors. See your
System Operator’s Guide
for more information. To run the event logger, set up a
background job, and then FORCE that job to run LOGGER:
