Remember the discussion of a few days ago. Well the rule for VMS
is DEQNA is not obsolete, just unsupported. FYI, unsupported
does not mean there is no driver only that the supplied on has not
been updated or rigerously tested in those version so dont call and
complain if it dont work. It went unsupported with V5.0.
Cheap as far
as I know. The key thing is despite claims if the DEQNA
you have is working, whats the rush to dump it.
Isn't there an issue with VMS obsoleting the DEQNA? This one was free, as was the uVAXII it was in (RA81,
KDA50, 9Mb, etc)
Use it. The DELQA and DEQNA have nearly identical modes with the delqa
adding a higher performance one(plus reliability). For VMS prior to
7.x it does work and for 7.2 mine seems ok.

Seriously? I have this vague memory of VMS 5.5 turning off the deqna interface
and not paying attention to it because it was unsupported. This may have been
when we were trying to boot the uvax II from the cluster server though. And
it's been almost 10 years now, so I may be misremembering the whole thing.

Does the DELUA have the higher performance mode? I have the DEUNA and
DELUA manuals, and see very little difference in the interface.
