DECsafe Available Server Environment (ASE)
HSG80 disk devices can be used with the DECsafe Available Server Environment
(ASE) for Tru64 UNIX provided a valid Host configuration (including Host
adapters) is used to support them. Refer to the Tru64 UNIX ASE Installation and
User’s Guide, Software Product Description, SPD: 44.17.xx, for further
information. Refer to the Release Notes for supported host adapters and Tru64
UNIX version levels for ASE.
Using genvmunix
Note: This section on genvmunix does not apply to Tru64 UNIX V5.1x, since the
configuration file has a different format for devices.
If you use genvmunix to initialize the system and doconfig to build a new
configuration file, the new configuration file will only list the HSG80 LUN 0
units; nonzero LUNs will not appear in the new configuration file.
Before rebuilding a configuration file using genvmunix, save any existing
customized configuration file that has entries for HSG80 units. After rebuilding
the configuration file, add the entries from the saved configuration file to the new
configuration file.
