1820.0. "OpenVMS. What FDDI controller is supp for 4000-90" by CSC32::EMRICK () Wed Oct 04 1995 10:42

Hello,

I have some confusion on which FDDI controller is supported on the 4000 model
90.  The customer is running OpenVMS V6.1.  There was an addendum for the 
DEFTA-AA which said it was going to be supported for OpenVMS after VMS 6.2.
Is this true?

My question is for OpenVMS (any version), what FDDO controller is supported
for the 4000 model 90.

Thanks,
-Jene Emrick

DEFTA-FA.
DEFZA-?? also, possibly.

There are plans to provide a driver patch to support the DEFTA-AA and -UA, but
since the driver patch is quite significant and since I don't have a 4000 with
a TC module, the work hasn't been done.  I'm going to implement it first for a
DEFQA and hope to find some hardware to try it out on for the DEFTA (its the
same driver source).  This work has been committed to be done this calendar
year.
