Need to activate engineering bit on a Octel 250
I have a Octel 250 GMR.
Need to replace drive 0 and need to turn on engineering bit.
Also when loging in via modem and try to access menu 20 getting this message.
Unable to get Phrase Management privilege.
Disk Services access denied.
Press any key to continue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

What is GMR? I know the OV250 but that has me stumped.

GMR is Global message redundancy
It is configured wit 2 redundant system drives and 2 redundant message drives
right now my system drive 0 is down aand I can't access menu 20.

I don't think you need the eng bit enable to replace a drive, just the service bit. Can you get to menu 20 from the boot command when the modem is connected to the "modem" port on the CCF card? If the modem is connected to ASYNC1,2 or 3 you can't get menu 20.
