FWIW, "similar" is much like "compatible" in a bug report. It's often
industry jargon for "different". If the servers were actually
identical, they'd usually be called "identical".

This is expected with the connection via COM2 port.
A TT port can also appear when connected via COM1when the server you've
connected to has the SRM console set to graphics, though that device is
usually TTB0: and not TTA0: with recent OpenVMS. Older OpenVMS
versions IIRC did use TTA0: and did shuffle the port names.
Verify the setting with >>> SHOW CONSOLE or via some (undocumented)
kernel-mode.
