Dear All,

Once again the Tru64 list came up with the goods almost
immediately. Thanks to

for replying and especially to Joe Fletcher who was the first to send
the solution. There is a patch kzpba_v40e_bl13 available
from the Compaq website which precisely covers our situation,
i.e. multi-CPU and multiple KZPBA SCSI controllers. I don't think
I've ever seen a patch description before which so well fitted a
problem!

Original problem: DLT tape drive started getting intermittent I/O errors
after extra new CPU installed.

Bob
