DS-KZPCC-CE controller

Hi
I got a new raid controller which is called DS-KZPCC-CE.
I have DS20E alpha server with tru64 unix v5.1.
I red in one of a website about this controller and I found this controller is supported with Tru64 UNIX V5.1 with Patch Kit 4.
what does it mean WITH PATTCH KIT 4.
How can I check whether my operating system (Tru64 UNIX V5.1) has a Patch Kit 4 or has not?
Could anyone give me the steps of Raid configuration for this controller?
bye

Re: DS-KZPCC-CE controller

Hi
Do I need to install SWCC utility to be able to configure Raid5?
If it is necessary,how can I install it?
I red in the web site Rob gave to me that this controller is supported on tru64 v5.1 with patch kit 4.
Where can I find this Patch,is it free or not?
bye.

Re: DS-KZPCC-CE controller

No, you should be able to use the ROM based utility (SMOR) to configure the array. Please read the User Guide.


Access to patches is now limited to those who have paid for software updates.

Re: DS-KZPCC-CE controller

Although, you may find some patches here:

ftp://ftp.hp.com.au/pub/patches/unix/

If you really are running V5.1 (I've yet to see the output of the commands Steven requested), as opposed to V5.1A or V5.1B, then patch kit 6 for that is here:

ftp://ftp.hp.com.au/pub/patches/unix/v5.1/t64v51b20as0006-20030210.tar

Re: DS-KZPCC-CE controller

Hi,

OK, so that really is V5.1.

You can find patch kit 4 here:

ftp://ftp.hp.com.au/pub/patches/unix/v5.1/t64v51b18as0004-20011114.tar

although there's no reason not to install patch kit 6 that I posted the link to previously.

To install, extract the patch bundle ( tar xvf )and follow the instructions therein - usually run dupatch.

Regards,

Rob
