HSZ40 controllers with Tru64 5.1a

        We have run into a problem with compatibility between HSZ40
controllers and 5.1a. If we run the commands:

        # scu
        # sbtl <port> <target> <lun>
        # show inquiry

        and we see "Vendor Identification: DEC" in the output, the
controller works with 5.1a. Most controllers have this string empty or
corrupted and will not work. Only one of the raidsets will be recognized.

        Does anyone know of a patch that can fix this problem, or any other
way to identify the controllers that will work? From hszterm, serial
numbers or firmware revisions, we can't tell the difference, so our hardware
vendors don't know what to bring us.

thanks
