    Indeed pk4 to V5.1B does break KZPAC/SWXCR's in clusters. HP's response:

    "
    Engineering has found the problem. It will probably take several days for
    the stuff mentioned below to be completed.

       There is a new ioctl that was added to cam
       cdisk for all devices... except the swcr (re driver) which doesn't go
    through
       the cam cdisk code paths. This ioctl is only used by drd in clustering
       configurations. I will be adding the new ioctl to the swxcr driver
    shortly to
       resolve this issue and will coordinate with cluster engineering a review
    of the
       changed code.
    "

    Original question:
    > I just built a new cluster and, while the non-clustered system I started
    > with has no problems, when I boot the cluster system, neither cluster
    member
    > can access it's SWXCR disks. hwmgr shows the disks, but attempting to even
    > show the disk label results in "No such device or address". Before
    > attempting to access the disk, drdmgr shows a server for the disks, but
    > afterwards, it reports "No Server".

    Although it may have been in vain, I do appreciate the help and suggestions
    from y'all.
