I look at the console output again, and your cache battery may give you fits
as well. HSZ's are funny when it comes to cache batteries. If it still comes
up as failed, do a 'run frutil', hit yes to replace the cache battery, then,
when it prompts you to replace the battery, just hit enter, (hopefully) that
will clear any battery errors. Cross your fingers.

Hi,

My Alpha 2100A perfectly boot with FreeBSD 4.6,
my problem (previous mail) was: "Put the VGA PCI card in first PCI block"!

I've surf a while before founding how to configure RAID on the mylex
controller, but it's finaly done.

Now, I'm seeking informations about a Digital StorageWorks 300AA
hooked to a PCI card: KZPSA SCSI Controller.

Is this StorageWorks Arrays supported on FreeBSD ? Has anyone an
StorageWorks
working with his alpha server ? Can you see disks in SRM or you needs
to access it via a special driver ?

On the server, I can see the SCSI interface KZPSA as pkb, doing show FRU,
and show CONFIG, but no disks.

I've hook a serial terminal to the Digital StorageWorks 300AA, playing at
9600 bauds and get a prompt. Any command fail and suggest to do a "SHOW
THIS_CONTROLLER" so i give you the result:

HSZ40C>SHOW THIS_CONTROLLER
Controller:
        HSZ40 ZG61200481 Firmware V34Z-0, Hardware  A02

        Time: NOT SET

        TRANSFER_RATE_REQUESTED = 10MHZ
Cache:
        32 megabyte write cache, version 2
        Cache is INVALID.  Cache containing unflushed data
         has been removed from this controller
        Battery is FAILED
        Unknown unflushed data in cache
        CACHE_FLUSH_TIMER = DEFAULT (10 seconds)
        CACHE_POLICY = A
        NOCACHE_UPS
        Host Functionality Mode = A
This controller has an invalid cache module
Invalid cache -- CLI command set reduced.  Type SHOW THIS_CONTROLLER.
Please-
