Hi, I've got an RL02 connected to my Vax 4000-200 through an RLV12 QBus controller. The Drive is spinning up fine and the Ready light is Lit, the Fault light goes off once power to the Vax is started and doing a SHO DEV at the Chevron prompt and within OpenVMS both show: RLV12 Controller 0 (774400) -DLA3 (RL02) Which looks great from my perspective, the drive ID plug is a 3, so DLA3 makes total sense. In the SHO DEV within OpenVMS does display the drive as being online. So my problem is with MOUNT, everytime I go to mount the drive the system simply hangs and never seems to complete the mount, I end up having to CTRL- BREAK to Halt the system back to Chevron and b up again from my DSSI DIA0: Anyone have any idea's what I'm doing wrong or what may be wrong??? I've tried with a /FOREIGN too since this platters are from an 11/730 and many of the handwritten labels on the disk paks say RSTS on them, so I wasn't sure if it was a format issue or something, I could really use some help/advice from anyone with a lot of experience with the quirks of the RL's. Thanks much, PS: If anyone has an RK05 or RK07 DECPack for sale and possibly an RKV11D Qbus controller I am in the market for one. Curt
