I did not have
to do anything special with my KZPSA cards (except
switch one to ID 6 so I could SCSI cluster the systems).
Odd. Do you happen to know what version of the firmware you're running? Is
it the lastest, or an old version. It looks like my problem is the version
of PWS firmware I've got. The
Intraserver card has a bug with systems with a Pyxis chipset
that requires a special patched driver. So my long-term plan is to
buy a DS10 and use the Intraserver card there.
Ah. :^( Well, I'm glad to find that out before going out and spending $300
for the card. Sounds about like me, though I've currently still
got the Elsa Gloria in the
machine, but am using my Mac as the display. I've tried a ZLXp-L1 and it
refuses to boot as it has an unknown device in it.
That sounds like an out-of-date firmware issue on the PWS, or
you need to move the card to a different slot.
That sucks about the Oxygen card, I'd been
considering that one. Any idea
how well the Oxygen card would work in a DS10? Be nice if DS10's would
start hitting the used market :^)
The VX1 is supposed to work quite well on a DS10. I'm waiting for
the DS10 boxes to drop. Right now the cheapest I've found is about
$3400, but that's with memory, drives, etc. loaded. Noone seems to
sell a stripped DS10.
Are you
willing to sell the old /73 board? I'd rather have a slow /73
than none at all.
I'm afriad you missed my point. That and some other stuff were part of a
deal that got me the Quad-Hieght /73 CPU.
