We are almost finished with migrating our systems from MPE-V to MPE/ix.  We
are going through extensive testing now and are posing ‘what if' scenarios.

A question has come up that we're sure someone on this list can help us
answer.  What happens if a user with a NS connection "kills" his terminal
emulator in the middle of a multi-record update?  With a serial connection,
this has not been a problem...the session stays alive.  But with a NS
connection, is the session and it's processes immediately terminated
potentially leaving some of the updates undone?  If so, is there a way to
prevent this?

We plan to use Minisoft for our terminal emulator.

Any comments would be appreciated.  We might even be grateful enough to
send you a "slightly used HP3000 model 70" (shipping not included)!

Thanks!
