1. UNIX V7 multiple terminals
The DH11 and DHQ11 have nothing in common except four characters in their
names. The DHQ11 is from a later generation of terminal mux's that
includes the DHU11 and DHV11.
A DH11 should be straightforward enough, given the available examples.
2. AOS
AOS (16b) will run on the Eclipse simulator; but as Bruce indicated, the
licensing issues appear intractible. The RDOS license was obtained through
the good offices of the late Don Lewine.
I don't have documentation for the 32b Eclipse series, so I don't know how
complex an MV8000 would be to do.
3. VMS Standalone Backup
One possibility is that SOB is expecting the second controller to have its
units numbered from 0-3 rather than 4-7. I've received a patch that will
allow the VAX secondary controllers to be DUB0-3, DUC0-3, and DUD0-3,
rather than 4-7, 8-11, and 12-15 respectively (a PDP-11 restriction that is
unnecessarily carried over to the VAX).
