    re .1 et .2
    
    
    Here are the 2 device descriptions. I have the feeling that the
    custommer  cannot
    shadow them because the 2 disks are not of the same type and do not
    present the same Total blocks.
    So the question is: Is there a way to configure the KZPSC so as to
    have the RZ28D be considered as of type RZ28D whith the correct size?

|  | You guess correctly that the disks cannot be shadowed due to different
characteristics (block count, sectors, tracks, cylinders).
I do not know the KZPSC but I've heard of something called "transparent mode"
which presents the disk exactly as it is, perhaps this is what you need to
find the correct configuration parameters in the documentation.
If you can convince the KZPSC to pass on the disk's characteristics exactly,
you can shadow it to the other one.
