The Question is:
I have installed the latest firmware update and what I think are all applicable
ECO's to our Alphastation 250 to try to get the system to recognize the newly
added DE500-BA fast ethernet card under OpenVMS 6.2, specifically:
ALPBOOT13_062
ALPCLUSIO01_062
ALPCPU1A02_062
ALPCPU1B03_062 (probably not needed...)
ALPLAN05_062
As in an earlier Wizard question, I still can't
see the DE500 from within OpenVMS, although it shows up correctly at the
console prompt as EWB0.
There are a LOT of ECO's, but I can't update to
a later version of OpenVMS yet due to some legacy code considerations. What am
I missing from the list of ECO's above to get the DE500 to show up within
OpenVMS? What other diagnostic steps can I take?
The Answer is :
As indicated by the OpenVMS FAQ section entitled "Which DE500 variant
works with which OpenVMS version?", you will have to upgrade to a
slightly more recent OpenVMS Alpha release -- the OpenVMS versions
and the ECOs are listed in the FAQ.
