Hi -
I have been successful in creating a console connection to a F740, however - hyperterminal and any key combination I am trying, does not seem to send a break to the system to get it to drop to the ok> prompt. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make this happen?
There are some combinations of OS and hyperterm that *cannot* send a break. I remember most versions of NT4 that being particularly true.
Or alternative programs that will send a break - I have used TeraTerm on Sun to successfully do this, but I am not sure this will work on a Netapp.
I assume you mean TeraTerm *with* a Sun. TeraTerm Pro is an excellent free serial terminal program for windows. I heartily recommend it for this purpose. It's only drawback for me is if you have a strange serial port on your box that isn't on com1-4, TTpro won't use it.
Lots of other programs would work fine... SecureCRT, Kermit, ....
