    Hello Managers,

    I've seen some questions and answers in the list archives concerning this,
    but nothing definitive.

    I have a client who, due to applications limitations, must run T64 version
    4.0f on an ES40.

    The hardware consists of the ES40, a KCPCC-CE internal raid controller, and
    two KGPSA HBAs ( for connectivity to a dedicated SAN consisting of two
    HSG80 controllers).

    The client wants to use a mirrorset on the KZPCC as the boot device.
    However, that controller is not nativity supported by 4.0f, so I need NHD3
    to get that support.

    Is there are way to load the OS directly on a unit on the KZPCC and load
    the NHD3 at the same time? If so, can someone detail the procedure for me.

    If not, ( and I suspect not) I assume I can load the OS on a standalone
    internal SCSI disk and then load the NHD3. I can then use a vdump/vrestore
    procedure to move the root/usr/var domains to a unit on the KZPCC.
    Correct? ( I have moved the filesystems and made the new disk bootable
    before, so I don't need detailed instructions, just a confirmation that it
    can be done in this case.)

    If I use the standalone method, do I load the OS, then patch kit 8, then
    the NHD in that order? And should the KZPCC be physically installed in the
    ES40 while I am loading the OS and patches?

    Any other gotchas, or recommendations would be welcome.

    Thanks.
    John
