Misunderstanding between
"unsupported = not guaranteed to work by the manufacturer" (KZQSA disk drives
on VMS, HP-UX 11i on G70)
and "unsupported = will not work or is not likely to work" (KZQSA on NetBSD,
NetBSD on G70)
My read of an earlier thread was that KZQSA was not likely to support multiple devices or
fixed disks under VMS, rather than merely "HP will not guarantee OpenVMS to support
all disks on KZQSA".
It would be nice if a definite distinction was made between these two connotations of
"unsupported", but I suppose it would be a lot of bother for anyone trying to do
that, especially the companies.
