493.0. "5.5-2, cant disable shadowing" by QUAKKS::DWORSACK () Fri Apr 18 1997 16:15

    i have a system i've inherited,,,,

    and i cant seem to turn off shadowing of the system disk.
    there is only one disk, and that's what shows in the shadow set.
    i keep trying to set the sysgen parameter shadowing to a zero, but
    when it boots it still goes right back to a 2... very strange...

    does anyone have a suggestion ?

    vms 5.5-2
    direct connected ra90 drive.

Set the SYSGEN parameter SHADOW_SYS_DISK to 0 and reboot.  It overrides
SHADOWING.
