Hello You all,
I can't get working a DEFPA-AA on a SABLE which should be
working as far I understood with ALPHAVMS 6.2.
We updated the SABLE / ALpha 2100 4/200 to latest firmware
level.
Checking Cluster Communication via SDA ( show lan/full )
an FWA1 device is created.
We connected the LWL to the GIGAswitch and also to a
Concentrator. We had two sets of LWL for this try.
The PHY led does not change from blinking to contigues on.
Is there some one who has some expirence with a configuration
like this.
What further action is probably requiered to make it running.
Jens

>> What further action is probably requiered to make it running. Try doing: $ define dcl$path sys$examples $ lavc$start_bus fwa0 If it now works and it wasn't before, let me know. If it still doesn't work, I'd suspect a cabling problem or broken module. - Dick | |||||

Note 1630.2 DEFPA-AA on SABLE ALPHAVMS 6.2 ? 2 of 2

I had the possibility to check on a ALPHASTATION 400 the DEFPA-AA
just booting ALPHA VMS 6.2 without any further action.
The PHY LED was on with a loopback LWL and/or connected to a
DECswitch 900.
I will post here later the final solution. Have to wait for
customer go.
