Thanks to all that replied. I received several responses to my inquiry.
Basically, I had to boot genvmunix and rebuild the kernel. Once I did
that, the system automatically create the rz* devices ( in this case rz29.
this was due to the fact that I read the wrong device off of my console. It
was actually dkb500 )
After booting the rebuilt kernel, I could then run disklabel and create and
mount my file system.
Again, thanks to everyone

Subject: Adding disk to DS10
I am a new Tru64 manager. I am running 4.0g and I need to add an additional
disk drive to my system. I currently have 1 internal drive and I am adding 1
external drive.
At the console level, the disk shows up as dka0:.
I have booted the system and run MAKEDEV to create the rz15 devices. I know
that I need to run disklabel to put a label on the device but my question is
this:
How does the system know which device I am associating with rz15? Is there
another command that I need to run? I have looked through the online
documentation and it has not been extremely helpful at this point.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
