Thank you to :
J Castro <sysup5_at_ciistr1.ist.utl.pt>
"Spalding, Steve" <SSPALDIN_at_mem-ins.com>
and
"Dr. Tom Blinn, 603-884-0646" <tpb_at_zk3.dec.com>
for their answers and here is Tom's answer
"The problem is, as you can surely guess, that the storage group changed the
naming scheme for disks and didn't communicate their revised scheme to the
people who produce the system software in time to have the system software
reflect the device naming."
I'm sure it will be fixed quickly (that's from me !)
