Can you see the disks from the AlphaBios?
Is the HSZ50 connected with a KZPSA?

| Hello,
Yes I can see the devices at the Bios initialization time with the
other local disks. Yes we are using the KZPSA to connect to the HSZ50.

| 5864.7 | KZPSA drivers installed? | KOKY::PEREZ | | Fri Apr 04 1997 08:52 | 5 |

| 5864.8 | Where - drivers for kzpsa? | ZPOVC::JUSTIN | | Mon Apr 07 1997 04:12 | 9 |
| Hi,
I was not aware that drivers for KZPSA must be installed
separately. Now that you mentioned it, I am using WNT V4.0 CD from
microsoft, not Digital. Does that make a difference? (Digital delievered
V3.51). Where can we get drivers for KZPSA- WNT4.0/Alpha. Is it
included in the HSZ50 platform kit. Ours may take awhile yet to arrive.
Justin
|
| 5864.9 | | CSC32::HOEPNER | A closed mouth gathers no feet | Mon Apr 07 1997 07:13 | 11 |
|
If you have the 3.8 or 3.9 firmware cd, looks under the UTILS directory.
cnfgdiag.exe and fwupdate.exe should be what you need. UTILS.TXT
describes how to load the drivers.
If you don't have the cd, try
http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/firmware/
to download the cd files.
|
| 5864.10 | fwupdate & cnfgdiag seems unrelated | ZPOVC::JUSTIN | | Wed Apr 09 1997 02:41 | 13 |
|
I have the 3.8 firmware CD. I have run cnfgdiag and fwupdate from the
console. They seem to address hardware setting/configuration of the
KZPSA, but no WNT drivers. Am I missing something here? We are already
at A10 firmware.
I also noted that during the WNT installation WNT has detected a
controller but has no drivers for it. I prompts for OEM disk
with drivers. I assumed this referred to the HSZDISK.sys. Following
the README on the HSZDISK.SYS, I installed it after the WNT
installation is complete.

You need the deckzpsx.sys driver.
Is this or is this not installed ? If it is installed, bring up
control panel/devices. The deckzpsx driver should have the
startup option as "boot".
hszdisk.sys is a class driver. If it does not detect any LUNs
on the hsz, it would not start up and will post an event in the
event log. If it does detect LUNs on the hsz, it will start up
and post an event that it started. It would also indicate the number
of LUNs it detected. Look at the last longword in the additional
data for this value.

btw, I believe the deckzpsa driver is on the alpha firmware CD.
it's also available at ..
SUBSYS::PROJ1:[HBA.PZA.PUBLIC.NT.ALPHA]DECKZPSX.SYS
... the current version is v1.3. The next version (V1.4) will
be released in a month or so.
|
| 5864.13 | deckzpsx.sys - missing link | ZPOVC::JUSTIN | | Wed Apr 09 1997 20:16 | 11 |
|
Yes that was the missing piece. deckzpsx.sys was not loaded. It is not
available on the firmware CD well atleast the V3.8 CD. I copied from
your location and installed it (though the README is rather outdated
V3.5) It works now.
Thanks to all who helped. Another customer made happy.

Of course the most logical place to find a pointer would be at
www.windows.digital.com. But I have found that logical and digital
are not synonyms. ;^)

It would be wonderful to have the necessary KZPSA drivers available
in the same location as other drivers under www.windows.digital.com...
We get several calls a week related to the drivers.

Talk to Bill Kerr at Subsys::kerr.
There are non-standard places to get this driver but I'd rather
have Bill Lin coordinate this with Bill Kerr to get this driver
from the "logical" place.

Well thanks for the action item, Paul! How'd I get in the middle
of this? ;-)
Ok, I'll see what I can do...

I'll need to confirm this , but the DECKZPSZ.SYS driver
comes in the Windows NT platform kit for the RAID controller.
That means it is not free. That driver cost about $100 a copy.
Because the HSZ50 can be used on many systems it was not bundled
with the controller to save money.
If you need a copy for internal use it is free but for
customers it is $$$.

So what would the party line be for customers who require
such a driver? Contact their local sales organization?
What is the part #?
And what do we do for the folks who can't find their distribution?
Thanks for the update.
Mary Jo (Who gets calls from customers on a regular basis about
this..)

| 5864.24 | | DECWET::LEESC | | Tue Apr 15 1997 10:04 | 5 |
| The driver is available on the NT V4.0 CD under
drvlib\storage\dec\alpha\kzpsa.

| I received a reply from Bill Kerr. He says the HSZ driver's available
from the web (via www.storage.digital.com/swrks under "technomania").
He didn't know if the KZPSA driver was available or not but he said his
group's going to make the drivers available if they aren't available
yet.
With the reply in .-1, it looks like a simple matter of collecting all
the different pointers and putting them in a logical place so everyone
can find them.
