Hi everyone,
Is there a way to transfer PAK license file to virtual OpenVMS Alpha?
What I have tried myself:
#1. Create ISO using WinISO, put PAK file there and then mount it with AlphaVM emulator, but it seems that I can mount this ISO only in foreign mode therefore I cannot copy file from it.
#2. Copy text directly from host machine to "edit" text editor inside OpenVMS, but I have got buffer overrun error message, so I cannot transfer license file this way either.
Any suggestions for me?
Thanks in advance |

The console port buffer is too small for large copy and paste operations. Try one of the following:
- Define a serial mux and copy and paste via a virtual serial port.
; Set up DZV11 Serial Multiplexer
; Terminal Lines
; -------- -------
; TTA: 0 - 3
; TTB: 4 - 7
; TTC: 8 - 11
; TTD: 12 - 15
;
set dz enable
attach dz 10000
- Copy and paste via a Telnet session. Set up the network license by hand if necessary. |

Thank you for answer
Just tried this
set dz enable gave me no error but attach dz 10000 wrote "invalid command" (AlphaVM emulator)
Did I run these commands in the wrong place?
I believe that what you have written is for SIMH (VAX) emulator, not for AlphaVM

You are correct, I posted for SimH VAX. Try FreeAXP. It includes both an OPA0 console port and a TTA0 serial port. You can use the TTA0 serial port to cut and paste licenses once you have the VMS license loaded. |
