[rescue] AT&T Starserver/FT Unix systems - system experience

I am curious if anyone on the list has experience on AT&T Starserver/FT
systems.  I am looking for system restoration information information.

If you are just watching this from the sidelines, here is the wikipedia
blurb on this server

.............................

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AT%26T_Computer_Systems

AT&T-CS also bought OEM systems from Tandem Computers and Pyramid
Technology. The Tandem Integrity S2 was renamed the StarServer FT and
sold only internally to other AT&T divisions.

.............................

I have recently encountered this system, and initially thought it might
have had ties to the AT&T 3b2 series of computer systems, that I know
that several list members have experience on.  The Wikipedia note above
is correct, and there are no direct relationship between the two.

OTOH, I can confirm that the statement concerning these systems only
being sold internally to other AT&T divisions is an incorrect statement.

Thanks for any comments,

Jerry
