 Subject:  Statement of Support for CIPCA-BA under OpenVMS 6.2-1H3 on the 
 	  AlphaServer 4000/4100
 
 
 This is to notify you of support of the CIPCA-BA PCI-CI adapter 
 under the OpenVMS 6.2-1H3 operating system on the AS4000/AS4100 Systems. 

        The minimum shippable F/W revision:        		214 

        The minimum SRM console revision tested:                3.0-10

        The minimum Operating System Versions tested:           VMS 6.2-1H3

	The maximum number of adapters supported:		2
                                                                


 Notes:
 
 1. This adapter is functionally equivalent to the CIPCA-AA.  The -AA variant
    is a two module option, one EISA module and one PCI.  The CIPCA-BA is also
    a two module option; both modules are PCI.

 2. Cluster environment must conform to restrictions of the CIPCA/VMS cluster
    operation as documented in the OpenVMS 6.2-1H3 release notes.

 3. First Revenue Ship scheduled for week 1 April 1997.

 4. CIPCA-BA preferred firmware version is A315.

 5. SRM V4.8 console allows use of the console "TEST" command when CIPCA is in
    the system and is required for use with 466 MHz CPUs and mixed 300 MHz 
    EV56/EV5 CPUs.
