Questions: 

I have an application using the generic SCSI driver (GK)
which is no longer working since the installation of
axp vms 7.1 on our cluster.

I've noticed that the documentation for the GK driver has
been removed from the I/O user's reference manual.

Is the GK driver still supported ? Are the modifications 
made for vms 7.1 backward compatible ? Where can I find
the updated documentation ?

Many thanks.

1653.1GKDRIVER Changes Made In V6.2XDELTA::HOFFMANSteve, OpenVMS EngineeringFri Mar 14 1997 16:536
   The Wizard assumes the package was last used on an OpenVMS version
   prior to V6.2 -- if so, please see the information in the OpenVMS
   V6.2 New Features manual for information on changes necessary to
   applications using the GKDRIVER.  (These change are associated with
   the changes made in support of VMScluster SCSI communications.)
