Manuals for Siemens RM-Series unix based servers (most even
available in English) can be found here:

http://manuals.fujitsu-siemens.com/softbooks/unix/u
s/rmop.htm

Had to dig up that resource mere weeks ago because the
university collection received a Siemens RM600 E.

I'm eager to get some hands-on experience but alas that
thing is far back on our priority list...

HTH,

   Thanks, but the Fujitsu-Siemens documentation goes back
only as far 
as the RM400 C line.  There's a lot of useful information in
those docs, 
but there are also some fundamental differences between the
RM400-10 and 
the later RM400.  The SINIX documentation is going to be
very handy, though!
