Folks, I'm attempting a customer (that'd be me) install of a new 520 with some optional feature cards, and getting nowhere fast. Neither the machine nor the parts shipped with any kind of i5/OS related installation instructions, but I did get: 1) a 500 page Safety Manual 2) AIX installation instructions for a 5703 SCSI card Gee.. thanks IBM. Anway, the base machine included the following components: 4 - 4326 Disk Units (35.16 GB) 1 - 2844 IOP 1 - 2746 Twinax IOA 1 - 9793 WAN IOA I'm trying to install the additional features: 1 - 6594 4-Disk Expansion cage 1 - 5703 PCI-X RAID controller 1 - 5702 PCI-X Tape controller 1 - 2844 PCI IOP The original PCI card positions were as follows: C1 - empty C2 - empty C3 - 9793 WAN C4 - empty C5 - 2746 Twinax C6 - 2844 IOP Using what little documentation I could find at the Infocenter, I came up with the following changes to the card positions: C1 - 2844 IOP C2 - 2746 Twinax C3 - 9793 WAN C4 - 5702 Tape Controller C5 - 5703 Raid Adapter C6 - 2844 IOP I installed the cards in the new positions, installed the disk cage & 4 additional disks, and connected the new disk cage to controller 0 of the 5703 adapter, using the supplied SCSI cable. The end result is that I can't IPL into DST. The machine is not finding the workstation controller (SRC A6005001). If anyone out there has some decent reference manuals, could you please take a quick look at my card assignments to see if something is amiss? Thank you, John Taylor
