OpenVMS 7.1-1H2 with KZPCA-AA
I have a client who is running OVMS 7.1-1H2 on an Alpha 4100.
He wants to access some external RAID volumes (non-HP) which are on an LVD SCSI bus.
I have installed a KZPCA-AA in an attempt to make the connection.
The console 'show dev' sees all but one volume (that which is at ID 0) as DKC100 through DKC600.
OVMS doesn't see any of the volumes.
I've tried using SYSMAN io auto and rebuild without success.
A rather obscure web site I found using a search seems to imply that the version of OVMS he's using requires a driver for the KZPCA-AA.
Is this correct and if so where can I get this driver?
Many thanks
Chris

Re: OpenVMS 7.1-1H2 with KZPCA-AA
the supported options list seems to indicate that 7.1-2 is the minimum OS version for this adapter.

Try searching the hp site for KZPCA (use google not hp search) and see if the driver is available.

Many thanks. I had to delve deeply into the patch archive to find the relevant remedial kit.
Next time I'm at the client's site I will try installing this and report back.
Thanks again.

Re: OpenVMS 7.1-1H2 with KZPCA-AA
I have just spoken to my client and he agrees that maybe it's time to upgrade. He says that it's a long time since any upgrades were performed!
I think a staged upgrade might be indicated i.e. try 7.2 first before leaping to 7.3
Many thanks.

Upgrade paths are in the VMS FAQ. I think it is a two step upgrade.
