Q1: Where are the commands for showing and setting
physical page files buried?
Check
SYS$UPDATE:SWAPFILES.COM. That will cover the page,
swap, and dump files on the system disk. If there are any
not on the system disk, you need to look through the startup
files to see where they are used.
Q2: Can I boot from serial console without pulling the
graphics cards?
It depends on the system. IIRC the QBUS systems require pulling
the graphics cards as there isn't a switch to set to tell the
system to use a serial console.
