During a new Tru64 5.1b-1 install my DS20E Ethernet adapters ennumerated in this order:

 HWID: NAME HOSTNAME PERSIST TYPE PERSIST AT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   59: ee3 csglf2 CONTROLLER pci0 slot 9
   57: ee2 csglf2 CONTROLLER pci2 slot 5
   56: ee1 csglf2 CONTROLLER pci2 slot 4
   13: ee0 csglf2 CONTROLLER pci1 slot 8

How can I change the hwmgr database so that the correct cabling order is used:

 HWID: NAME HOSTNAME PERSIST TYPE PERSIST AT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   59: ee3 csglf2 CONTROLLER pci0 slot 9
   13: ee2 csglf2 CONTROLLER pci1 slot 8
   57: ee1 csglf2 CONTROLLER pci2 slot 5
   56: ee0 csglf2 CONTROLLER pci2 slot 4

For disks, the dsfmgr has a swap command, but it doesn't seem to work for ee: devices.

thanks.
