James.  How new is your machine?  I remember from my SysAdmin course at
Sequent (two years ago) that the S81 did not support SCSI disks; only
the S27 did.  I have heard however, that there is now an upgrade to make
it SCSI compatible.  It requires changing the SCSI bus and I believe it
also needs a power supply upgrade.

That's why I am suprised that you were able to do it.  But what do I
know, I'm still running Dynix V3.0.17.

Do you use the Multibus too?
