Mark,
You are correct that commandview will not run on MPE.
You can do most everything you need to do through the command port. However, you can not update the firmware, or monitor the array.
If the firmware is correct, you can semi monitor the VA through the serial port.

Have a brand new (for us, anyway!) VA7410.
Is the CommandView SDM really necessary? I know it won't run on MPE so I
have to have a UNIX or Windows host with an FC card to run it, but I also
know the VA arrays have a serial port for command access. Can I do
everything I need to do through the array's built-in command line? What can
only be done via SDM?
