- 1. What version of ULTRIX are you running?
- 2. Except for a few DEC disks model number mean little to me,
- what is the capacity of the drives?
-
- In either pre-ULTRIX V4.2 or pre-ULTRIX V4.1 the SCSI driver was
- limited to accessing 2^21 LBNs. This is fixed in V4.2.
-
- If you're getting just generic I/O errors look in the error log
- to see if has a better suggestion.
-
- p.s. It is unlikely the DECnet address you have will be of any
- to somebody on the Internet. If it an address of a system on
- DEC's internal network, then it might be useful since we have a
- gateway to the rest of the world.
