| No (assuming you are referring to single LUN devices).
Since the adapter itself takes a SCSI number, the maximum is 15.
However some platforms don't support more than 8 (current versions
of Digital UNIX for instance).

| NT does support 16 scsi ID's I have heard
none of the other OS do....yet

| 6377.3 | | LEFTY::CWILLIAMS | CD or not CD, that's the question | Thu Feb 06 1997 11:53 | 7 |
| While NT supports 16 ID's with a wide controller, that translates to a
15 device max, with 1 ID reserved for the controller.
No one can support 16 devices with 1 ID per device.

You'll need OpenVMS V7.1 or later if you want to use the `upper' eight
units available in wide SCSI. Be aware that you might also end up
saturating the bus or the controller with that many (fast) disks...

| Hi
To summarise :
OS 16 SCSI device support
(incl 1 SCSI Id for controller)
---- -------------------------------
Unix No (when ???)
OpenVMS 7.1 onwards
WNT Yes (3.51 onwards ????)
Is this correct ?
