[HECnet] Boot VAX from Alpha host Infoserver?

I have two of the 6-stack units (624x). They work GREAT! Some of the VAXen see all 6 drives, some do not. The VAXcluster boot member for the STARS2 cluster has one on it right now (serverd to the whole cluster). -Steve -----Original Message----- From: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE [mailto:owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE] On Behalf Of Zane H.

A search on the web should be able to give you the correct switch. I love the old NEC Mulitspin's, I have an 8x caddy drive in my PDP-11. They're the only non-DEC drives I've been able to find that works with some of my older DEC gear. Zane -- | Zane H.
