Wait a minute.  These instructions deal with a scsi-attached printer.  Is
there such a thing?  The question dealt with configuring a DTC port for a
serial connection.  Am I missing something?

- CORRECTION


First, identify a path that represents, say, a scsi or fwscsi adapter.

Let's assume it is path 56/52 (for a 9x8 machine).

Now, identify an UNUSED device number within that path - say device no. 2.

In sysgen, add a PSEUDO device at that address, as in

AP 56/52.2 ID=PSEUDO

Now either add or modify ldev 6 as follows:

MD 6 PATH=56/52.2.0

At this point you need to do one more thing and that is to modify the
device so that it's PMGR setting reflects the fact that it is attached to a
SCSI adapter instead of an HPIB adapter. So, you need to do as follows:

MD 6 PMGR=SCSI_DISC_DM  --------------------------->>>> CORRECTED VALUE
(sorry about that)

At this point you can HO and KE your configuration, reboot with a START
NORECOVERY, and life should be good again.
