Hi Everyone
I have tried to install a Meridian Mail node (Version 13) on my Opt 61c and I am having a few problems and was wondering could anyone help.
I have installed all the cables and set all the various switches on the MSDL card,Mail back plane.MMP40 card etc. The problem I have is I can see the MMP40 card and it loads the various stages and finishes with an A in the display with a blinking dot. The problem is I do not get a Meridan Mail logon prompt. If I reboot the system I can see the MMP40 card start up and pass all the self tests. It finds the SCSI devices the hard drive and tandberg tape drive But it goes so far and then I get no header back from the mail terminal.
I have tried to reload with the tape but I do not receive the options on my terminal to reload the system.
I think I have a faulty MMP40 card or utility card and was wondering could someone shed any light on this one for me.
Just a few quick points.
The AML link is established
The mail is a single hard drive unshadowed system
The Mail configue in the node is as follows
Slot 0 VP8
Slot 5 Utility Card
Slot 6 MMP40
Any help would be appreciated.
Many Thanks
Marshall
