Sure.....Steve corrects the URL, but not my *name* :)
(The first "e" was left out :)


BTW, Jean, the maximum size of a disk drive on MPE/iX
varies depending upon which release (or patches) of MPE/iX
you're using.

If I'm in doubt, I check the IODFAULT.PUB.SYS file, and search
for "GB" to find what the largest supported disk might be.

On our well-patched 6.0 machine, I see:

          {3.50" 73 GB FC Disk Device.

which tells me that it had better support a 73 GB disk!

BTW, "support" is a slippery concept :)

For quite some time, MPE/iX hasn't done a proper job of supporting
larger disk drives.  On 6.0 and later (perhaps earlier, too), MPE/iX would
allow you to mount/use a larger disk drive than DISCUTIL (an important
offline utility) would support.

Speaking of which, I can't find my ITRC Call about the DISCUTIL bug
in either the Support Call Manager or in a search for "DISCUTIL" in the
so-called Knowledge Base.  (It's Call ID 3100543022 , from Feb 2001)
