    One more question please.
    
    We have multiple systems with multiple HSZ40s. In the following
    configuration, will I be able to use 1 workstation to monitor all 
    the HSZ40s?

    Each pair of 2100s has DECsafe running. All 2100s are on the same
    network. Can a single workstation running HSZ40 Array Controller
    Utility V1.1a monitor both HSZ40s?

	Not unless all HSZ40s are on the same system.  HSZterm IS NOT
	SWCC.  It is a host terminal emulator for talking to the a
	virtual console that runs on the HSZ40.  All it does is partly
	replace the need for having a console terminal plugged into
	every HSZ40.

	For example:

# hszterm -b 3 -t 1 -l 6

	In this case I have an HSZ40 on bus 3 and it is setup to
	respond on targets 0, 1, 2 and 3.  LUN 6 happens to be
	unused, which is the best kind to chose for running HSZterm.

	You can also run it using:

# hszterm -b 3 -t 3 -l 3 "show pass"

	...giving it the desired command in quotes.  This is useful
	for scripts that might periodically gather information from
	the HSZ40.  It doesn't completely replace the console terminal
	because I think there are still things printed to the console
	that don't go to virtual terminals, if they happen to be
	connected.  This may have changed since I last paid close
	attention though.

	You should read the documentation for HSZterm so you'll know
	what it does and does not do.
