We were using a modem on a DTC port (managed by OpenView DTCMGR) when we
were running an 960 and a 950 on 4.0.  Worked fine.

We don't do it any longer however.  We like the modem that HP provides on
the machine directly, mainly because it also offers us remote dial in.

I don't know about MPE, but HPUX does allow network access for predictive in
that it uses email.  HP is actually really trying to push this (I had to
practically pull teeth to get predictive installed on a V2250 using a
modem).

Perhaps the MPE email vendors could work with HP to provide this option on
the 3000s?

        You should be able to have all your machines share one modem for
Predictive
        Support.  We use OpenView DTC Manager for this, but I think
host-based DTC
        management will now allow systems to share DTC's.  I'm not sure of
the
        release number which allowed this (5.0??).  Listers, please correct
me if
        I'm wrong on this.

        I'm reasonably certain that PS cannot use a network connection.

        Is there a way to setup predictive to transfer the data out through
the
        network to the HPRC instead of having a modem on each machine to do
so?
