[HECnet] VAXstation 4000/60 parameter RAM?

[Hans Vlems]

Yup, that's what my memory thought it was. I've learned to mistrust my own memory s‎ubsystem somewhat....
Anyway, SETTIME set to 1 makes VMS behave like standalone backup: it asks for the date and (optionally) time.

SETTIME in SYSGEN :)

Set it to 1 and VMS will ask for date and time at every boot. Anyway, if the
battery is completely dead, the TOY clock should stay at zero, and that should
be enough to trigger the date and time request.
