I posted here a few days ago about not being able to get an Emulex QD21
to configure its disk drive(s) at boot time under Ultrix 2.0. Welllllll,
it was my own fault! Mea culpa, mea culpa.
I noticed that I had left the disk declarations in the config file
looking like:
controller uda0 at uba?
controller uq0 at uda0 csr 0172150 vector uqintr
controller uda1 at uba?
controller uq1 at uda1 csr 0160334 vector uqintr
disk ra0 at uq? drive 0
disk ra1 at uq? drive 1
disk ra2 at uq? drive 2
disk ra3 at uq? drive 3
disk ra4 at uq? drive 4
disk ra5 at uq? drive 5
disk ra6 at uq? drive 6
disk ra7 at uq? drive 7
I pulled these out of the GENERIC sample file without a thinking
enough about it. Maybe I was confused by the new `uq[01..]' class of
declarations. When I changed the drive [4567] to [0123], it works! I
also changed the `?' to `0' or `1' as appropriate, but I'm sure the
first thing is what was wrong. The new fields are:
controller uda0 at uba0
controller uq0 at uda0 csr 0172150 vector uqintr
controller uda1 at uba0
controller uq1 at uda1 csr 0160334 vector uqintr
disk ra0 at uq0 drive 0
disk ra1 at uq0 drive 1
disk ra2 at uq0 drive 2
disk ra3 at uq0 drive 3
disk ra4 at uq1 drive 0
disk ra5 at uq1 drive 1
disk ra6 at uq1 drive 2
disk ra7 at uq1 drive 3
Now, of course, I'll have to wait for a while to see if the dynamic
bad block replacement in 2.0 works correctly. I don't have any reason
to think it works, but I'm a worrier!

Uh, a mental slip, there. I meant to say I have no reason to think it won't work. -- Bill UUCP: {seismo|ihnp4}!harvard!cfa!wyatt Wyatt ARPA: wyatt@cfa.harvard.edu (or) wyatt%cfa@harvard.harvard.edu BITNET: wyatt@cfa2 SPAN: 17410::wyatt (this will change, someted mo
