OpenVMS from 'old' disk has PADRIVER from 26. Apr. 96 X61Q-SSB-1F00

795.5did you run ECU?WRKSYS::LAUMon Mar 10 1997 18:5212
    It seems you didnot run ecu to configure the KFESA after you upgrade
    you Mikasa (AS1000) to Noritake (AS1000A).
    
    After you run ECU to add KFESA and power off/on the system, you will
    see the
    device with  >>> sh config command.
    
    The console FW V4.7-169 is the right version.

795.6I DID itCOL01::VSEMUSCHINDuck and Recover !Tue Mar 11 1997 08:5520
Re .5, Sorry for my unclear note (.4)

I did run ECU many times. This computer has DSSI Id 7 and 7 is default ID.
So I used to set DSSI ID to 0 (0 was free ID) and when I called ECU next
time (after the power-cycle ) I saw that DSSI ID was set to 0. Thus 
I concluded that ECU worked OK. ECU Disks were both 1.10 and 1.8.

But anytime after the power cycle as well as after the init command I 
saw thet KFESA is listed among other adapters in self test and then not 
shown in show config output.

I tested it with 2 different KFESA cards.

Operation system is OpenVMS v6.2-1H3 and now I'm about to get the PADRIVER 
from Mike, since the only version I found in TIMA Tools was for 6.1

Regards,
