Configuring PCI Hardware?

» close window

The Question is:

 
Wizard,
I have to configure a PBXDP-AA on AlphaServer
1200 running OVMS 7.2. I have plugged in this card. Upon issuing SHOW CONFIG
at console prompt system reports the following info,
PCI0 Slot4, Type 90801065, Rev 0045,
name unknown0. Is it correct? Has this card been
recognised properly.
With this card we haven't received any documentation. Looking for your help
in guiding
me to find documentation regarding its
installation/configuration under OVMS.
 
TIA.
 
 

The Answer is :

 
  The PBXDP-AA 2 Port, PCI Synchronous Communications Controller is
  supported on recent OpenVMS versions.
 
  Please contact the Compaq Customer Support Center for assistance.
 
  Please determine if the firmware revision in the AlphaServer 1200
  console is current, and upgrade it if not -- a minimum version of
  SRM V5.1-3 is required.
 
  The OpenVMS Alpha X.25 environment must be at a minimum of V1.1B,
  if this controller is to be used with the SRM.
 
  There is an ECO required for certain versions of the OpenVMS Alpha
  X.25 package -- check to see if you have the appropriate (current)
  combination installed.
