Mark,
   
  As usual, a couple of questions first.
   
  Can you see the "other" drives 1,2 after the reboot?
   
  On the drive is there a termination jumper, you may need to remove it.
   
  Also,
   
  I believe the pseudo path should be 56/52.4 and ldev 4 should be 56/52.4.0.
   
  HTH,
   
  -Craig

  It's been a few years since I managed a 3000 but I was working with one of my
clients with adding a drive to their system. It really should be
straight-forward but we seem to be missing something. The system is a 928LX
running 5.5 with Express 7. (Yeah, I know...) It has two internal drives (4GB)
which is the max for that cabinet. They purchased a 9GB drive in an external
box and we connected it to the external SCSI port (just above the console
port). We set the SCSI ID to 4, added the pseudo path (56/52.4.0) to sysgen
and added LDEV 3 with that path and an ID = "ST39173W"

We rebooted the system and ran ODE MAPPER. (On the first runs of MAPPER, we
get the report headers and then garbage. When we type run again, it works
fine. Don't know if that's significant.) When the drives mount, we get LLIO
errors -11 and -15 and we don't see the drive when we do a DSTAT ALL.

We contacted the vendor and stepped through everything but the results were
the same. They sent out a new drive (shows as IBM instead of Seagate) and the
client tried it again and got the same results. I asked for a copy of the
output from MAPPER. Here it is:

63 MEMORY 128 (M) 1H 22H 9H 0 0
SLOT 3A-64M 
SLOT 3B-64M 

So both drives appear in mapper but not MPE. Any thoughts? Is there an issue
with the SCSI ID we chose (4)?

Thanks in advance...
