The Question is: Machine: DEC Alpha aServer 4100 5/600 8MB Operating System: OpenVMS V6.2-1H3 We have problem with disk. On one SCSI controller are OpenVms say: 1. DKC0: DEC RZ1CB-CS 2. DKC100: DEC RZ1CB-CS 3. DKC200: DEC RZ1CB-CA 4. DKC300: DEC RZ1CB-CA 5. DKC400: COMPAQ BD018635 6. DKC500: COMPAQ BD018635 7. MKC600: TZ89 Outside label say: 1. DS-RZ1CB-VW 2. DS-RZ1CB-VW 3. DS-RZ1CB-VW 4. DS-RZ1CB-VW 5. DS-RZ1ED-VW 6. DS-RZ1ED-VW With COMPAQ BD018635 ( or? DS-RZ1ED-VW ) we have "MountVerify mounted" problem. After the disk was thaken out/in from slot,disk is mounted ok,but error count for disk is bigger.*this error repeat's ( other DEC RZ1CB-CS, DEC RZ1CB-CA disk dont have this problem ) Is there any Openvms patch for this DS-RZ1ED-VW is supported option said Compaq in AlphaServer 4100 Supported Options List but how it is with COMPAQ BD018635 Can You help me please The Answer is : You appear to have a hardware or a SCSI configuration problem. OpenVMS does not generally support hot-swapping SCSI disks, though there are controllers and configurations which can quiesce the bus and allow for the on-line replacement of failing storage. Please check the documentation for the particular storage controller and storage hardware configuration for details and supported features. You will want to contact your hardware service organization to verify the configuration and the firmware versions, and you will want to ensure that the current mandatory ECO kits for OpenVMS have been installed. You will also want to look at the contents of the system error log, to determine what -- if anything relevent -- is being logged. You wil further want to verify SCSI unit number settings for the SCSI controller(s) and for all SCSI devices, as well as correct SCSI termination.
