That solved my IVP not a workstation problem... Thanks!

But now while testing ivp told me can`t open Display.

If i start the Vaxstation in the boot system i can use the hole Monitor.
But when VMS started there only 25 usable lines left on Monitor.

What i have done is that i have installed VMS with the alternate Console mode via RS232. After that i connect a VGA monitor with a sync seperation adapter and a keyboard and mouse.

Remember VMS the install Environment?

DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS Installation Verification Procedure (IVP)

This IVP is intended to test some of the functionality of DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS and to provide a quick method of verifying the installation.

This machine is not a workstation. Please provide the nodename of a workstation on which to display the IVP tests. You must be sure that this account and node have security access to the display node, or the IVP will
     fail.

To skip the display-oriented tests, press Ctrl/Z at the following prompt.

Why IVP detect the Vaxstation as not a workstation?
Serial Console is off...

Any ideas?


How are you logging in to the VAXstation?

If you log in using the workstation monitor/keyboard/mouse, the IVP should
detect that you are on a workstation.  Try:

$ SHOW DISPLAY

to check.

If you log in via DECnet (SET HOST), via a serial line or via some TCP/IP
packages (telnet/rlogin/rsh/ssh), you may need to do something like:

$ SET DISPLAY /TRANSPORT=LOCAL /CREATE

before you run the IVP so it knows where to display stuff.
