How to force scsi bus PKA to be PKC?
My question is, is there a way for me to force the DEC 3000 with one scsi bus to refer to it's bus (after booting) as PKC instead of PKA?
THANKS

So you can set NODEA$PKA = $1$DKA0: and NODEB$PKC = $1$DKA0:, too.

The great thing with port allocations is also that you can use different classes for local busses and even different host allocation classes for, e.g. IDE CD-ROMs.

Re: How to force scsi bus PKA to be PKC?
Besides editing the SYS$SYSTEM:SYS$DEVICES.DAT file to achieve this objective there are two other ways to make the file conform. One is to use cluster config.com but the one I decided to use is a conversational boot followed by enter these commands:
SYSBOOT> SET/CLASS PKA 2
SYSBOOT> SET/CLASS PKB 3
SYSBOOT> SET/CLASS PKC 1
This forced the "C" bus back to being the "A" bus with allocation class of 1. It also wrote the SYS$SYSTEM:SYS$DEVICES.DAT as
shown
[Port ALPHAR$PKA]
Allocation Class = 2
[Port ALPHAR$PKB]
Allocation Class = 3
[Port ALPHAR$PKC]
Allocation Class = 1
thanks

Re: How to force scsi bus PKA to be PKC?
You did not tell what version of OpenVMS you are using, but I see that you already have put port allocation classes on all adapters anyway. At least on some old versions of OpenVMS there was a problem when the real PKA adapter did not have an allocation class.

there is no change of the names that you see before boot.
