[Info-vax] : Re: Ctrl-Ecf

[Art Wiens]

This doc:

about 1/4 the way down where it says Note:

If you see a message similar to the following, another user has the console (only one user can write to the console although multiple users can view it). 

 
   [Read only - use Ctrl-Ecf for console write access] 
 

To gain control of the console from the other user, press Ctrl/E, release the key combination, and then immediately type the letters cf. Alternatively, you can have the other user log off. 

Note that the system will not work if it has MP firmware older than version E02.22. For information about updating the MP firmware, see "Firmware on Integrity Server Systems".


Firmware revision issue stopping you?

Cheers,
Art
