<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">I have two physical systems, a VAX 6220 and a VAX 4000-300. The latter system is set up to do a network bootstrap off the 6220 using an EZA0 network device.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">First, using vddriver and backup/image, I generated and retrieved disk images of the RA92 drives from the 6220. With these disk images, and specifying MicroVAX 3900 on
the SimH simulator, I am able to boot up an emulated version of the 6220 on my laptop. So far so good.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">My first goal is to get the physical VAX 4000-300 to do its network bootstrap off the emulated 6220 rather than the physical 6220. By the way, I am running SimH 4.0 on
Windows 8, it seems to work OK.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">The first problem I ran into was that the simulator presents a different network adapter to the emulated 6220 than it is accustomed to seeing. It typically sees a "BNA-0"
interface, but the simulator uses "QNA-0", as derived from the XQA0 device. So, I found out that I needed to run netconfig.com. When I ran that script, it brought the circuit online.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">But when I tried to do network boot of the physical VAX 4000-300 off the emulated 6220, it kept saying 'retrying network bootstrap'. So evidently that was not sufficient.
Then I came to discover that the 6220 uses DECserver, and there is a dsvconfig.com script. Once again, because the simulator presented a different network device than the 6220 was accustomed to seeing, the configuration had to be updated. So okay, I ran
the dsvconfig.com script, and made it aware of the fact that it is now a "QNA-0" device rather than a "BNA-0" device.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">So after running both netconfig.com and dsvconfig.com on the emulated 6220, the physical 4000-300 no longer says "retrying network bootstrap". Instead it now appears to
be able to communicate, but it says "unable to locate boot file":<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">I am really stumped on this one because basically the disk images should be one-to-one copies of what is on the physical VAX 6220, so other than having to tell it that
it has a different network adapter (QNA-0 rather than BNA-0), why shouldn't it just work? Does SimH not support MOP or DECserver? I did check, and the sysboot.exe file is present in dua0:[sys14.syscommon.sysexe], and sys14 is the directory for the VAX 4000-300
to use for its network boot. So I believe the boot file is available.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">So it almost looks like it has done a successful load of the system software to the 4000-300, but then the port closes presumably due to not being able to locate the boot

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">1) there is some other config script that needs to be run when using disk images from one VAX system (physical 6220) to another (simulated MicroVAX 3900)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">2) SimH on Windows 8 does not really support MOP or DECserver stuff?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">3) there is some permissions issue with the boot file (sysboot.exe?), but since it is off a disk image (which should be a one-to-one exact copy), how so?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Any ideas? Thanks in advance.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
