Hello,
Original problem was invalid devices show on dxsysinfo. I received 1 reply
which didn't quite fit. I found the file /.sysman/dxsysinfo which had
entries reflecting devices:
Sample:
16 /dev/rz5 7 0 1 1 0 0 40 7 # cdrom
8 /dev/re0 13 2 2 1 0 0 0 0 # disk drive
32 /dev/rfd0c 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 # floppy drive
4 /dev/rmt0h 7 0 0 1 1 0 3 3 # tape drive #1, valid
4 /dev/rmt1h 7 0 0 1 1 0 4 4 # tape drive #2, valid
128 /dev/rmt0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 # invalid drive
128 /dev/rmt1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 # invalid drive
The process to correct is:
1) close out dxsysinfo
2) delete /.sysman/dxsysinfo (it will regenerate), or edit to remove
"128" entries
3) open up dxsysinfo
Note: doing step 2 with dxsysinfo open, and specifying Update_Devices
didn't work. Even though you would expect it to touch the devices, it must
find something that is resident.

Hello Guru's,
Tru64 4.0F pk3, AS1200
I added a SWXCR drive, labeled as re15c and created the Advfs volume, which
went fine. I wanted to see the new volume on the RAID controller
initizilation on boot, so I rebuilt the kernel:
# sizer -n $SERVERNAME
# doconfig
DXSYSINFO is now showing 2 bad devices, related to the tape drives. There
are 2 good displays of the tape devices with the "tape" icons:
/dev/rmt0h
/dev/rmt1h
The 2 bad devices show disk icons with red circles and the red forward slash
over the circle (like the red Ghostbusters warning sign):
/dev/rmt0
/dev/rmt1
The tape drives are the plug-in DS-TLZ10-VA, which are on the internal of
the AS!200 with some other bricks (not a SWXCR area). I've tried a device
update, and same results. Is there a way to make those devices go away?
