Thanks for the suggestion. Have you done timings on this recommendation?
And although the 989/650 is a powerful beast, we do tend to use it, or we
wouldn't have purchased it.

The intent of the compress=LOW coupled with the INTER option, is to keep the
data flowing down the SCSI bus while not wasting system resources. I guess
the right answer depends on the effectiveness of the compression algorithm
in the DLT drive verses the MPE compress=high algorithm. [...]35_6Aug200214:46:[log in to unmask]

Alan,

        In addition to removing the primary boot drive (Ldev) on path 52.6, did you
make the drive on path 52.5 the new LDev 1 in sysgen?

Thanx,
        Jon

Subject: [HP3000-L] Primary boot disk has died... New Install?


Hi,

I have a HP 918 which has 3 disks:

   56/52.4
   56/52.5
   56/52.6

the primary boot disk 52.6 has died so I have
removed it. I have backups so a new install
of MPE/iX 6.0 is ok... so I load up the 6.0
SLT DDS tape and boot from that and then

ISL> install

primary boot disk was changed to 52.5 the
MPE/iX loading message starts and then

Beginning INSTALL...

then nothing... for hours...

the disks show up fine with MAPPER.
AUTO reboot and search is off.

the DDS3 tape is 56/52.0

Any help please.

Alan
