Thre is a conflict in the November 96 SOC as to the number of CIPCA
(PCI CI cards) that are supported on the 8400.
According to the 8400 SCO entry on 2.183 only 2 CIPCA per PCI are
allowed and only 2 per system.
According to the OpenvVMS Cluster Systems Configuration Details on 5.8
a total of 10 CIPCA are supported under 6.2-xxx and 26 under V7.1
Who is right?

| 1137.1 | VAXAXP::VMSNOTES, SPD or engineering? | CRLRFR::BLUNT | Fri Mar 14 1997 18:38 | 8 | |
Have you checked in VMSland? Yes, the SOC has basically valid info,
but it usually doesn't have the absolute latest and greatest info ALL
the time. My understanding is that 10 are supported under V6.2-1H3,
but you'd need to check the VMS SPD OR with engineering to find out
exactly what is SUPPORTED.

| 1137.2 | Go by the SPD | USPS::FPRUSS | Frank Pruss, 202-232-7347 | Sat Mar 15 1997 00:08 | 4 |
The SOC is a set of guidelines. The SPD is the equivalent of a legal
contract.

We originally supported 2/system, because that's what we managed to qual by CIPCA FRS. Since then, we've upped the levels: 4/PCI and 10/system with VMS 6.2-something (1H3?) 0/PCI and 0/system with VMS 7.0 4/PCI and 26/system with VMS 7.1 and later. Cheers, Bob | |||||
