C3600 is beeping

Hello!

I've got a C3600 machine, which is constantly beeping. About every 30
to 45 seconds, it is (most of the time) beeping 4 times in a rather
short period of time. Sometimes, it's only beeping once (as quickly as
those 4 beeps).

The machine has no keyboard and mouse attached.

In the display, "Run F01F:", "Run F11F:" and "Run F21F:" is
displayed (it's switching between those 3 numbers). On the
lower line of led, a harddisk led is flashing, a heart is flashing
(filled out and empty) and (I guess) two "icons" for Net I/O in- and
outbound are flashing. The machine is working fine, otherwise.

What's those beeping supposed to mean? How do I turn it off?

Thanks a lot,

Alexander Skwar

I believe it is because CDE desktop is trying to find a display for
dtlogin. We have a room full of headless workstations and turn off the
beep with:

/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc stop_msg
/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc stop
ch_rc -a -pDESKTOP=none /etc/rc.config.d/desktop

We wrap the above commands in an SD configure script, put it in a depot
and then
it is swinstalled. That way it can be included in automated processes
that are using swinstall.

title Turn off CDE beep
description On workstations without a graphics top (like test
machines) the
dtlogin daemon beeps continually. This drives you to the brink if you
are in the test area for more than a few minutes. So this product shuts
down the daemon and modifies the rc config file to not start it again
on reboot.
