Hi I have an arry RA4100 and a system running windows 2003 ,

I am receiving messages from windows that say

Event ID 9
The device, \Device\Scsi\cpqfcalm1, is not ready for access yet.


There are other system in the same storage arry running windows 2000 , the system that have windows 2003 had 2003 , and there is not any problem .

Really it seam to be a problem with the 2003 ,
My question is , is supported windows 2003 with this array 4100?

Thank you

No, the RA4100 does not support Win2003.

Win2k SP2 is the latest support the RA4100 has. It was discontinued years ago.

The RA4100 also supports only 2 hosts sharing it, if I remember correctly.

Good luck,

Vince
