The collected works of iris39

I feel kind of guilty asking this, since I think it is simple but I searched the forum and could not find the answer.

Can someone please confirm that the following messages are related to two fibre channel boards on my Tezro complaining that I am not really using them:


Is there a way to disable these boards to get rid of these messages, since I don't plan to use the boards? It takes a while for my Tezro to work through these on start-up and I wonder if I can shorten the time.

Also, are these boards for connecting to disk arrays only, i.e. I can't connect two Tezros with these boards via some switch or directly? I went through the SGI fibre channel manual but it's old and says it is currently for connecting to disk arrays only. Just wanted to confirm.

Thank you.

Thank you for your reply. I think I will keep them, just in case.
So, I guess then there is no way to disable them from IRIX.

Hi,

I was using Tecplot like maybe 10 years ago when I was writing my thesis. Recently I got an urge to play again with my FEA code and visualization software - I just can't shed my scientific past completely.

I have the software and a demo license, which expired a long time ago. So I contacted Tecplot and offered them a nominal fee for Tecplot 10 license. They said they can't generate licenses for Tecplot 10 and they don't support Tecplot for SGI anymore.

Does anyone know if there are entities that can sell Tecplot 10 and are able to generate licenses? Are there other alternatives?
