/dev/rzXX files renumbered

Hello All,

I have several DS-10/DS-20/ES-40 machines that I am migrating from version 4.0f to 4.0G (Application vendor requirement). I have found that my hard drive device files have changed as a result of applying patches to get to 4.0G (as opposed to re-installing to the 4.0G level). The change is consistent across platforms, although the numbering varies depending on what I have for disks (IE, raid vs internal).

EG:
    before upgrade - /dev/rz16
    after upgrade - /dev/rz32

    before upgrade - /dev/rz17
    after upgrade - /dev/rz33

    before upgrade - /dev/rz18
    after upgrade - /dev/rz34

I am able to get around this problem, but I'm curios if it is a known bug or an issue related to the way I upgraded? or is it something serious that will bite me in the future? I've searched the archives, but haven't found anything about this issue.

Your input is appreciated and I will summarize.

Regards,
Robert
