Hi folks,
I've got my VAX3800 resuscitated after many years in limbo and two of the
four RF71s in there have gone bad. Has anyone tried swapping the controller
boards between drives? Is it just a matter of letting the drive
auto-calibrate or do I need to SET HOST onto the controller and tell it
it's
on a different HDA...
Good question, but I think it's the drives not the controller that will
need to settle. I would check (too late now I know) the boot sequence see
whats happening step by step for clues.
I can tell you that adding in a new drive, initialize with volume name to
match the old volume name is what I would do if I was swapping in a new
drive.
