Comment:

I installed KSPDA wide SCSI controller on
AlphaServer400 running OpenVMS 6.2-1H3.
It is mentioned on COMPAQ's Options site
as supprted on such systems. The controller
and disks on it are seen under SRM, but not
under VMS. When booting VMS from a disk on
this controller, it normally starts booting
but then reports failure to install PKEDRIVER.
It should be PKQDRIVER, I guess?
Who could give me an advice how to resolve
the problem?

I don't know much about hardware, but a message on another forum talks about wide Scsi not being supported until OpenVMS 7.1
