asyncdsk driver for HP-UX 10.20

[Anu Mathew]

Hi there,

We're having some trouble in configuring the asyncdsk driver on 10.20 upon K460 for Sybase. Sybase folks say that only "asyncdsk" should be present and we were trying to implement that.

In the particular system, pending state of "asyncdsk" is "In" , also, the state of "asyncdsk_included" is also "In". But in all other systems (where Sybase works cool), "asyncdsk_included" is "Out".

We tried to remove asyncdsk_included from the kernel. SAM told to remove "asyncdsk" first, and then try on "asyncdisk_included". Well, removed both the drivers, re-built the kernel and once the system came up, we tried to add "asyncdsk" driver in, and it was observed that "asyncdsk_included" also gets in automatically.

Please note that in working systems with same model and H/w, we got only "asyncdsk" in. "asyncdsk_included" is out there. We want to have only asyncdsk in and keep out all other stuff.

Your responses would be greatly appreciated

Thanks and regards

Sounds like you need to do a patch analysis on your K400. Or install the latest patch bundle.
The "HP-UX 10.20 Support Plus Tested Patch Bundles" should help if you system has older patches installed.

I recreated the associated device file and the problem is solved. Thanks for the response.
