Just found the answer..."No more than three dummy disks are allowed in
sequence." Let us know what you figure out.

Maybe I am totally off here but isn't it "illegal" to have 2 fillers in
consecutive slots? The microcode suggestions are good ones though...mc
is always one of those "check first" things.

Hi *.

I have a 6F1 here that I am building out. It has 4 SSA 18.2 internal
disk
and a SSA160 adapter cables A1/A2 to the internal disks. B1/B2 are not
cabled.

The outside 2 drives (slots 1 and 4) are blinking green, slots 5 and 6
have
fillers. The A loop light on the SSA adapter is green solid.

Only 2 pdisk and hdisks show up on the system.

What is this telling me ?
