Recently a windfall of funding found me with enough cash to add to the measly
storage on my aging MicroVAX II.  It's disk storage now consists of two RD53's
on an RQDXE controller and an RF71 in a separate RF215F enclosure on a KFQSA
controller.  The machine is running VMS 5.5 and is not clustered.

So, I called the good old 1-800-DIGITAL number, and they said that sure, buy
this here newly discounted RF72, slip it into your existing enclosure, and
be a happy customer.  However, when I installed it, it gives every evidence
of being hooked up properly by passing the power on self test, and responding
properly to the front panel switches, but I can't seem to get the computer
to recoginze it.  I have caused some real turmoil at my local DEC office, and
have tried to get someone at 1-800-DIGITAL to take responsibility for this,
but no dice.  

So my question is:  Has anyone else been silly enough to keep a MVII this
long and then been even sillier enough to try to put an RF71 and then an
RF72 on it?  If you tried it, did it work?  How much sturm und drang did 
you have to endure in order for it to finally work?  Many thanks for any
help that might pop up.  Email responses might be better, as this probably
has little general appeal, but do what you think is best.
