9886.0. "DEFPA-DB in SAS mode under V4.0b dunix?" by CSC32::A_LICAUSE () Tue May 20 1997 12:26

    A customer has asked if his defpa-db will work in SAS mode on his V4.0b
    dunix system.
    
    It has always been my understanding that any DAS capable interface will
    also work in SAS mode or am I missing something here?
    
    Thanks,
    Al

    You're not missing anything, you're correct.  It's fine to run a DAS A
    port as a M port (connecting it to a concentrator).  The board, I
    believe, is smart enough to figure it out.
    
    That should be in the document that comes with the adapter, but I
    haven't looked at that document for a long time.
