1131.0. "problem with show device kzpaa0" by COLES1::LONZECK () Mon Mar 10 1997 15:50

    Hello,
    
    i need some information about the P00>>>show device kzpaa0 command on
    the TLASER A8400 with FW V4.0-4.
    
    Problem: Often the show command P00>>>show device kzpaa0 hung.
    
    The only device connected to that controller is the internal RRD42-AA.
    (System upgrade from A7610 with internal RRDCD (with RRD42-AA).
    
    The show command tells only the controller information
    
    P00>>>show device kzpaa0
    polling for units on kzpaa0, slot 4, bus 0, hose0...
    pka0.7.0.4.0       kzpaa0        Bus ID 7
    **** the console hung at this point and only a reset bring me the console 
    back. (i am waiting 10-20 Min. befor i do the reset)
    **** the P00>>>show device <cr> command hung also. ****
    If you disconnect the RRD42-AA (SCSI-BUS) the console prompt comes
    back.
    P00>>>show device kzpaa0
    polling for units on kzpaa0, slot 4, bus 0, hose0...
    pka0.7.0.4.0       kzpaa0        Bus ID 7
    P00>>>
    
    If you connect another device, for example TLZ04 to the sec.
    SCSI-Connector on the Backsite of the RRDCD and disc. RRD42-AA (i know
    its not supported), with disconnected RRD42, the console give me the right 
    information.

    The problem is i can't do a FW upgrade from the CD-Rom at this point.
    Power Off/On does not do any changes.
    (CD inserted and not inserted).
    Replacing of CD-ROM Drive; and LDC does not do any changes.
    
    But under VMS V6.2-1H3 the CD-ROM Drive works fine.
    
    any Idea ??
    
    normal printout:
    P00>>>show device kzpaa0 <cr>
