Your problem is absolutely related to proper tuning of the VMS system and is NOT a simh specific problem. Upgrading VMS from V6 to V7.3 would reasonably require some tuning adjustments. Proper examination of the running system along with reasonable input data (MODPARAMS and FEEDBACK) to the AUTOGEN process would be appropriate. _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
