Hello,

During the weekend I want to upgrade our AlphaServer 2000 5/250
machine to DU 4.0D. It has a RAID controller (KZPSC-BA, PCI based
with 3 channels). This needs, as so often before, a firmware
upgrade.

It turns out, that the contents of the firmware version 5.1 CD
directory utility/swxcrmgr is changed with respect to previous
versions. This (of course) is also so with the 5.2 version available
on ftp.digital.com. Unfortunately, the relevant documentation in the
firmware guide for AlphaServer 2x00 in App. D applies to the previous
versions. I found release notes in a file name rcurel.txt, but this
document does not tell you how to use the new programs (RA200RCU.EXE
and RA200FL.EXE) in detail.

So, can anybody out there help me find the complete RCU documentation
on the net? Or, tell me how I use RA200RCU and RA200FL to load the
new firmware. Or, tell me that I am dum and just overlooked ..., but
then, please, what did I miss?

Many thanks in advance,

Bjorn
