Hi osf-managers,
       
        I have a problem after setting up the RAID array on 2 3-port KZESC
with RAID 5 on 2100 4/275 machine, attempt to boot the factory installed O/S
to further sertup the system caused an error message ( WRITE BACK CACHE NOT
SUPPORTED ) to appear at the time of the initialization of the two RAID
controllers. I did'n proceed with the rest of the installation yet.

I put back the RAID setup to WRITE THRU policy. Is there a way to enable the
WRITE BACK CACHE with DU 3.2C.

NOTE :-
        the FIS was on a disk located in the RAID array, but I have moved it
to an external BA350, as so it's needed & it's not gonna be part of the
RAID. So I'm reinstalling DU 3.2C from the CD anyway.

Can you help ! I have to make this installation tomorrow !

Thank you in advance ...
