- With the exception of using this command on 6000 class machines,

- with the a minor change that'll survive across VMS upgrades:

- Instead of editing SYS$COMMON:[SYS$STARTUP]VMS$DEVICE_STARTUP.COM
- edit SYS$MANAGER:SYCONFIG.COM instead and include the following:
-
- $ startup$autoconfigure_all == 0
- $ mcr sysgen autoconfigure all/exclude=xp
-
- This file is there for the purpose of configurating devices.
