Tru64 5.1B-3 cluster

If booting from a CD to recover the system, will the fibre based disks
be visible? (e.g. loose a disk group in your EVA and then rebuild the
disk group <but no data on the disks> and now you are going to recover
from tape). Are there special commands that you need to enter to see the
drives? (I know there would be work to be done to mount'em up, but I
want to know if they will be visible/accesible in hwmgr, etc).

Second question, what if you have fibre based "tape drives" (e.g. a
VirtualTapeLibrary), can you see the fibre based tape drives if you boot
from the installation CD?
