Hi 

My Customer has connected 4 RSP-2150 Tapes on an Alphaserver 1000A 4/266 and
Digital
Unix V4.0b Rev.564.
If he boot the system , he get's only a short startup entry in the uerf
output.

                                                  uerf version 4.2-011 (122)

If he disconnect the tapes from the System, the startup entry looks like

The tapes works normal , but the customer wants to know if there is something 
to configure in the device database, to see the tape devices in uerf output.

Has anyone experiences with configuring "Metrum RSP-2150" in Digital Unix
V4.0b ???

thanks in advance 
/Walter
