6380.0. "DSSI and Hsd30 config question" by RDDAWG::P_COLE () Thu Feb 06 1997 15:45

      I have a DSSI based mixed cluster in which I've added an HSD30..but
    only the 2 2100's can see the hsd30 and its disks...why cant we see the 
    HSD30 from the workstations?

The 2100s must serve the HSD30-connected devices to the cluster.  Is the MSCP
server loaded and active?  Is the allocation class of the HSD30 non-zero?

6380.2MSCP ParamsRDDAWG::P_COLEFri Feb 07 1997 10:188
    Stephen,
    	The MSCP params are as follows...
    MSCP_LOAD                       1   
    MSCP_SERVE_ALL                  1   
    
    ....BUT...the allocation class on the HSD30 is 0...

Making it non-zero should fix the problem.  It should match the allocation class
of the two 2100s.
