IOSCAN shows unknown PCI SCSI for new card

[Rodney Hills]

I removed a fast/wide scsi card from an RP2470 (running hpux 11.11) and inserted into the middle slot of a RP2450 (running hpux 11.23).

The ioscan on the RP2450 shows-
0/6/2/0 unknown PCI SCSI (1000000f)

The ioscan on the RP2470 (prior to removal)-
0/6/0/0 c720 SCSI C87x Fast Wide Differential

Is there a module I need to load in the kernel?

I could only find C8xx and it is already loaded on the RP2450.

Thanks in advance...

Hi Rod,

Probably not, but check that rp2450 to see if the C87x driver is in the kernel or not.
If it's shown but it's not in, then just add it in, relink & reboot.
If you don't even see it, then yes you'll have to track it down on one of the CDs.

HTH,
Jeff

Hi Rodney:

It appears that you need the 'c720' driver loaded in your kernel.

I'm sorry - I meant the c720 driver.

Hi,

As per the supported options for rp2470 , the card might be A4800A Single port PCI fast/wide differential (FWD) SCSI-2 adapter .

If it is, then this is not supported with 11.23.

Thanks Sameer,

A4800A is the board type I had.

You nailed it.

I guess I could install hpux 11.11 on the RP2450...
