For the curious

If you're curious about the steps needed to create the patched VMS images, here's what
|
||||||
|
we had to do:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Create a VAX/VMS 5.5-2 cluster using a SIMH emulated server.
|
||||||
|
2. Enrol the target VAXstation 2000 into the cluster as a member.
|
||||||
|
3. Patch the system using the original patch set
|
||||||
|
4. Verify that SCSI is working and create two blank images on the BlueSCSI (id 2 and 3).
|
||||||
|
5. Create a standalone backup kit on DKA300
|
||||||
|
6. Copy the VAX/VMS-5.5-2 installation backup files onto DKA300
|
||||||
|
7. Copy the SCSI patches to DKA300
|
||||||
|
8. Boot from DKA300 and install the VAX/VMS base system to DKA200
|
||||||
|
9. Reboot from the network and manually copy the patched files to the
|
||||||
|
correct places on DKA200
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
As you can see it's not a simple operation.
|
||||||

Good luck!
