As the system reboots, it should report the SRM as 3.10-33 and the ARC as 3.5-31. The update has successfully

Restrictions
• Miscellaneous - Certain older SCSI disk and tape devices that cannot properly handle wide SCSI transfer
negotiations might not work correctly with the KZPSA adapter. For example, when you use the console
command show config, the system will not display information about these older disk or tape devices, i.e.
RZ58.
To avoid this problem, contact your Digital services representative to verify your device contains the latest
firmware revision and/or run the KZPSA Utility (described in Chapter 6 of KZPSA Users Guide) to disable
Wide Negotiation for the device.
OSF/1 Restrictions:
• OSF/1 supports the use of up to seven SCSI devices for each KZPSA storage adapter.
• The KZPSA-BB adapter is supported on DECSafe Available Server revision V TBD or greater. KZPSA-BB
firmware must be revision A04 or greater to work in a DECSafe Available Server configuration.
KZPSA Restrictions:
The CNFGDIAG and FWUPDATE utilities do not support multiple KZPSAs in a AlphaServer 2100 at this time.
The KZPSA configuration and update utilities do not support multiple KZPSAs in AlphaServer 2X00 at this time.
The workaround is to install only one KZPSA at a time and to configure that one module. Configuration informa-
tion is stored in non-volatile memory so each module can be set up one at a time. After all modules have been
individually configured, all modules may be installed in the system.
