Yes, they will run NetBSD but NetBSD doesn't support DSSI drives yet. If
you have SCSI drives attached to the KZQSA then you're in luck there. The
M9060A boards are the dummy load boards used to keep enough load on the
BA213's switchers to insure that they "light up". The number of disks
inside can be ascertained by looking for numbered plugs in the front panel.

Well while snipe hunting in the lab ;-) I can across 2
dusty machines.
I noted the BA213 written on both of them and quickly sat down and wrote
every part listed on its back (front?). What I need to know is how do I
get started with the 2 machines? Here's what they have:
Model 640QS-B2 BA213
MS650/M7621 KA640/M7624
M7559
DSV11-SA/M3108
M9060-YA
KSQSA/M5976-SA
TQK70/M7559-00
M9060-YA
Can these machines run Linux or NetBSD. Where do I get OpenVMS? And yes
I'm pretty sure that we are licensed for VMS (Corp ITS is crazy about
that kind of thing!).
Thanks
