| There is no real reason more than 5 KZPSA's will not work.....
It's just a matter of qual testing....
A revised qual list should be comming soon. I'll ask when.

You may want to be more specific on exactly how many and of what type
controller you're planning to install. How many KZPSA's, DE500's, and DEFPA's?
Which models?

| 597.4 | UNIX and >5 KZPSA's | WONDER::TOUSERKANI | | Wed May 14 1997 12:33 | 5 |
| There might be a hicup when configuring beyond (5) KZPSA with UNIX. I am
not sure if this was an O/S issue or HW/FW issue. Let me double check
with the UNIX folks since they were doing the tests.

| 597.5 | UNIX is waiting for SHR response | WONDER::TOUSERKANI | | Wed May 14 1997 14:57 | 22 |
| This is what I got back from UNIX folks. It looks like it might be a H/W or
KZPSA F/W issue with this. That's why we have indiacted a max. of (5)
per system until we find what the limitation is. Let me poke around the
Storage people for an answer as well.

Subj: Re: KZPSA's
frank,
We looked at the KZPSA error that was being seen. It was seen
a misc error on the KZPSA. The problem was sent to the SHR folks. It's
now one of their numerous kzpsa problems.. UNIX is waiting for SHR to
explain the problem.

Frank,
One piece of information is that the maximum number ww ran was
8. {9} is where things begin to fail.

Subj: RE: # of KZPSA in a system
Hi Frank,
We have KZPSA's on order so we can qual 10 on Dorango. We know of a issue
with 9 or more not working. That is the only multiple KZPSA issue that I'm
aware of.
Dave Okeefe, any status on this order? I know they were on allocation for
awhile which delayed the order.
Gary
