Anybody using multi-bus failover with 5.1 with HSZ70s ?

Basically, I'm looking to hear if anyone had an AlphaServer running 4.0x
connected to an HSZ70 pair configured in transparent failover mode using a
KZPBA-CB adaptor and was running HSZ70 HSOF firmware version 7.7 and then
after upgrading to Tru64 5.1, changed the hardware setup so that each HSZ70
in the pair was connected on a separate bus to one of two KZPBA-CBs in the
AlphaServer and then set the HSZ70s to use multibus failover.

I understand that multi-pathing was added to 5.x primarily to support SANs
and Fibre Channel but I'm interested in using it with the older
SCSI-attached storage arrays since the controllers already support this
feature.

The AlphaServer is a 4100.
