    Hello,

    I have been tasked to add storage shelves to our StorageWorks MSA 1000
    connected to an ES45 (Tru64 5.1B), and it's been one problem after another.
    When I first turned off the MSA 1000 to connect the shelves, and turned it
    back on, one of the original drives showed up bad. That was replaced.
    Then I upgraded the firmware to v.4.32A (I believe from 4.31). I also
    upgraded the ES45 firmware to v6.9. But now I can't get my existing or new
    volumes that are on the MSA 1000 to show up. I keep getting this message
    upon bootup.

    My volumes will not mount, and if I try, I get a vague error about I/O
    error. There are no errors on the MSA 1000 itself. I can create a diskset
    and delete them. All the disks are fine. I tried removing the new volume
    and disconnecting the new shelves, but even the old volume will not show
    up. I am powering them in the right order, shelves, wait, MSA1000, wait,
    ES45.

    If anyone knows what's going on I would appreciate it.
