Shared Resource Manager is a form of network file
sharing. The SRM
adapters for the 9000 200/300 series computers are common around here
and I've seen the adapters for the 98xx computers. But I've never been
able to find out much about the file server end of SRM.
Somewhere I have an HP computer in a box the same size as the standard
HPIB hard disk units. IIRC contains an SMPSU, a CPU board flat in the
bottom which contains a 68000 CPU, RAM, HPIB port, etc, and 3 expansion
card slots. In my machine these contain a video card (looks to be
monochrome text only), an SRM interface card (with a BNC connector) and a
card with HP-HIL, sound, etc on it. Maybe there's another HPIB port on
this card.
It would take some time to find it to get the model number, but does
anyone recognise it from the description. Could this be used as an SRM
file server?
