--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Customer has a three node 2100 cluster. They boot from a disk on a
dual redundant hsd30 disk. After booting they may prefer the disk to
the other controller as a load balancing exercise. The system may
crash at that point and it fails to write the dump. The problem
appears to be the dump code wants to write to the original boot path. The
code tries to bring the drive on line to that controller and fails.
Would the dump_dev variable (which is currently null) help here?
vms 6.2, console 4.2 Two kfesb, one for each dssi path to the dual
redundant hsd30's. The original bugcheck reason was resolved. We need
to find out what happened to the dump code and if there is a way to
get the dump code to find all possible paths.

| If you put a list in dump_dev, then each device would be tried until
the dump can be written, or until the end of the list.
