The answer to your specific question is to use the kermit program and 
documentation that came with it from an Interex CSL (Contributed Software 
Library) tape.  At least one version of KERMIT is on the tapes from a few 
years ago.

HOWEVER, why not use the transfer protocol supplied by WRQ with Reflection.
It's probably faster and more robust on the 3000 anyway.  (HP3000 systems
are very good at some things IMO, but asynch I/O isn't one of them.)  I 
haven't used Reflection for the Macintosh, but I'll be shocked if it doesn't 
either come with a special transfer program just for it and the 3000, or 
(more likely) support the same transfer modes that "R. for DOS" or "R. for 
Windows" do, namely, WRQ (PCLINK2.PUB.SYS) and OLD-WRQ (PCLINK.PUB.SYS).

We got PHNE_0685 but it doesn't fix the problem. We also
changed the CPU/LAN boards, but no success! (HP 9000/433s HPUX 8.0).

Keywords: disk performance hp 9000 730 PA RISC SCSI
Organization: The MITRE Corporation
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 1992 17:34:51 GMT

hello, all.

i'm seeing what seems to be pretty feeble disk performance on my 730.  

i have a relatively old 730 (one of the first off the line, as far as i
can tell).  i don't know for sure if that makes any difference. 

i have two 97560 drives.  i've tested them using the iozone benchmark.
this benchmark (available from the usual archive places) just reads and
writes a big file using normal buffered i/o system (but reading and
writing a large enough file eliminates the effect of buffering).

recently, i aquired two 97560 differential drives and an eisa
differential scsi board.  i'm seeing the same feeble performance with
these drives as with the others.

i've already spent some time reporting this problem to hp, and i've even
had a service person come out.  originally, i thought it was a problem
with the 97560's, but we changed roms and it didn't make any difference.
also, the new differential 97560's exhibit the same poor performance.

before i pursue this further, i'd like to be absolutely sure that what
i'm experiencing is a problem that is specific to my machine.  i'm
wondering if anyone out there has tried running iozone on a 730 or 750
(should be comparable performance).  what numbers are you getting?

i'm consistently seeing the following:

<800K/second writing
<600K/second reading

this is for both the differential and single ended 97560's.  i have also
tried striping them together.  this roughly doubles the the performance.

the word that i hear from hp is that i should be getting more on the
order of 2M/second sustained throughput from these drives. 

i suspect a problem with the i/o board on my machine.  anyone seen or
heard of similar problems?  also, if anyone has performed these or
similar tests, please post or send me your results.

thanks,

The NeXT is indeed using a Mach (2.0, I think) derived kernel.
I don't find it so great, and indeed prefer HP-UX 8.0 to it (obviously
I use both). In HP-UX, at least, I know where things are hidden.
I detest NeXT's dynamical and irrecuperable swap files (Mathematica can
easily fill up your disk and bring the system to  a halt), which force
me to reboot every few days.
I prefer lp with its model scripts to lpr and its (obscure) printcaps

NeXTStep/NeXTOS is the dynamic loading into the kernel.

I am presently using an HP9000/720, HP-UX 8.05. I have a program that is
supposed to call out to remote computers, download some data and hang up.
However, I am having quite a few problems with the port.
I used SAM to configure the port (both of them) and the tty's that were
created are /dev/ttyd00 and /dev/ttyd01.  Now for the hard part..
When I try to access these tty's, the TR light on the modem lights up, but
the stty commands I am sending to that port are never executed.
For Example:
	stty -parenb ixon < /dev/ttyd00
causes the TR light to come on, but my prompt does not come back unless I hit
^C. Upon doing so, the error I get is ttyd00 cannot be opened.
stty -a < /dev/ttyd00 gives the same results.. a hang until ^C and then the
error.

So, my question is, how do I access these tty's??

    I'd rather have a bug-free, patch-free operating system 
    which does not have embarassing crashes (as HP-UX 8.0 did, till I found
    out that there are patches PHNE_..., which should have been
    incorporated before the tapes were shipped to me), and without the
    need to go through a painful update every so often. There should also
    be noo need to ftp imake, Xaw.h, and configuration files from Uppsala, or
    Liverpool, when the Company is just 800 km away from you....
    Rather than sooner, I prefer to have an OS which is indded better,
    consistent, stable, and easy for a non-hacker to update and maintain.

I am interested in these issues. I have been considering using a 
700 series machine in an upcoming project. I have been trying to 
pick up what I can from the net, magazines, and anything. 

Another choice would be a Sparc 10, which means Solaris 2.0, which
also means vapor products (I'd need at least 2 processors ...
to match a 730 (probably even a 720)) :-).

Anyone have any comments about the Sun kernel and the HP kernel?
Where may I find info on HP, its OS(HP-UX), and its future plans?
The magazines don't seem to treat the 700's much, and seem to try
to cover all HP products, yielding little useful info.

As far as I know, in earlier versions of SunOS it *was* possible to rebind
the ypbind process at a machine with an RPC call. (What do you think the
/usr/etc/yp/ypset program does?)  That's why Sun changed the default
behavior of ypbind (no rebinding allowed), and introduced explicit options
(-ypsetme, -ypset) to help you if you really *needed* the possibility of
changing the YP binding from the outside.

I have (just now) verified that I can rebind the ypbind *on another HP*
with ypset on my local workstation. As a normal user. Talk about gaping
holes in security...

I suspect that error message is generated by either the compiler, "make", or
the shell, and not by "ld" itself.  It simply indicates that "ld" died due to
signal (138-128) = 10 = SIGBUS.  In other words, "ld" crashed and dumped core.
It produced no error message about that; whoever called "ld" did.  I don't work
on the PA linker, though, so I have no clue as to why the linker died.

We will be getting a HP 705 (or 710) this week. I have good
experience with SunSparcs and Solbournes. I wanted to know
how different is HP system administration when compared
to Sun. Some of you gurus may find my questions too stupid,
but that is ok !!!

* Can I set up my HP as a client of Solbourne (yellow pages) ?
  I think the answer is YES but how hard is it to get this
  setup working.

* Can I access the disk space of my solbourne from a HP ?
  (automounting). If so, how tough is it ? 

* Can I use the executables compiled on non-HP machines
  on my HP (like tcsh, mush, rn ) ? dumb question uh ?

* Should I get some books for HP administration ? Are there
  any books available ? I have books for Sun administration.

* which are the good newsgroups on Usenet for HP ?

* Any other info about HP systems is welcome.

Please respond by email.

thanks

No, Not me.

I strongly suspect the difficulty lies in the HPUX 7.05 kernel. Support for
file systems larger than 1Gbyte was not added till HPUX 8.0.
I think you might have to format (ie: newfs(1m)) the disc with a file system
no larger than (say) 975Mbytes, and leave the rest for swap space.
