No auto restart

Hi Gang,


My Alpha 3000/300 recently upgraded to v3.2a, firmware v6.0, no
longer automatically restarts after powering down. It happily boots
when requested to at the console command prompts, so I have to
assume it's a prob with the environment variables. However, I have
poured through the documentation on these and can see no errors.
Here's a list:

AUTO_ACTION = RESTART
BOOTDEF_DEV = DKA0
BOOT_OSFLAGS = A
ENABLE_AUDIT = OFF
BOOT-RESET = ON
SCSI_RESET = 4
DIAG_LOE = OFF
DIAG_QUICK = OFF
DIAG_SECTION = 1
DUMP_DEV =
MOP = ON
SECURE = OFF
POWERUP_TIME = {NULL}
RADIX = 0
SCSI_A = 7
TRIGGER = OFF

DUMP_DEV and POWERUP_TIME seem to be new variables as I can't find
them listed in the Hardware Reference Guide. Also, BOOT_OSFLAGS
seems to be pertinent to VMS systems only, so far as I can tell.

Anyone have any ideas?

Cheers,
Lyn
