Managers,
     I am attempting to add a used Storage Dimensions RAIDFlex array (model
SFX7-N) to an AlphaStation 233/255 running DU4.0b. I have added a KZPAA-AA
host SCSI controller card to the system. I can see the device when I do a
'show device' at the console prompt. I have booted to the generic kernel,
rebuilt the kernel with 'doconfig', and the device created was rz8. I have
rebooted and the device is recognized by the new kernel, however, when I
attempt to put a disklabel on the device I get an I/O error. I have
experience with StorageWorks RAID arrays and the swxcrmgr tool to configure
the groups, etc. I went to Storage Dimensions web page, but I only found
UNIX RAID utilities for Solaris and RS6000. If anyone has any ideas, please
e-mail me at...
