Hello

I am trying to configure a KZPBA on an ES40 running TRU64 V5.1A. When
I install the card initially the system will not boot. There are
various cam_logger errors and memory errors.
>>>/var/adm/messages info:
contig_malloc: cannot find memory in saved list
cam_logger: SCSI event packages
cam_logger: bus 2
isp_get_console_image
Unable to allocate contig memory
isp_init
Unable to read back firmware from chip

I found a document indicating to change the SCSI ID 7 default to 6 due
to a conflict with the RAID controller
>>>run bios pka0
set pka0_host_id 6
boot genvmunix
doconfig

I then had to do a
set console_memory_allocation new
init
boot genvmunix
doconfig

The system will boot but the device cannot be seen. I have run the
dsfmgr and hwmgr utilities. I have booted from the cdrom, copied over
the genvmunix, removed the dec_hw_db and dec_hw_db.bak in an attempt to
have them be rebuilt.

They system acts as if the card was not even attached. I do not have
any devices in my /dev/ntape or /dev/tape

I would be grateful for a direction to head in! Will summarize.
Thanks
