Several specific 9000 server questions:
(1) is there any way to figure out how to turn off the "Remote: locked inactive
multiple ACCESS FAULT:" messages that come up when you go into
the CM? It seems (per newer HP hardware guides) to be looking for non-present hardware.
Not sure how to trim it, though.
(2) is there any way to speed up the self tests that happen when you go "CO" ?
it takes about 5 minutes to get to the PDC . . .

I don't think so...what you are likely seeing is the status of
different h/w testing that is being done. The tests at this level of
box take a LONG time.

Not that I am aware of.

No, sorry.
BTW, the text is supposed to get displayed on the 25th line
(the "status line"). If you don't have an HP compatible terminal,
or emulator, you can get a free one for Windows at

Possibly. The time scales with the amount of memory. If you're not
really using the machine for much, pull some or most of the memory out.
I had one machine of that family do a 30 minute selftest when I loaded it
to the (way-past-HP-spec) maximum memory. (I thought the machine was dead,
got distracted and went away...came back later and found the selftest had
finally completed :)
(The selftest time scaling isn't as bad on newer machines, BTW)
You could also turn off memory self-test, but I don't recommend that.
