We have an Alpha DEC3000-M800 OSF/1 V3.0 Firmware 6.4
We are trying to attach some Seagate ST410800N 9Gig drives. The current
setup has a Storageworks external drive to which we tried to daisy chain
the Seagate drives off of. A showdev does not recognize the new drives.
The bus length with all devices would be:
5ft from machine to Storageworks
3ft internal to Storageworks box
2ft from Storageworks to 1st 9G drive
1ft internal to drive
2ft from 1st 9G drive to 2nd 9G drive
1ft internal to drive
-----
15 ft total
We have since run a 5ft cable directly from the machine to one of the
9G drives with proper termination and still can not see the device.
Does anybody have any experience/ideas on what the problem may be?
