    I have been reading that Tru64 5.1b supports dynamic load balancing between
    hba's and had a few questions on the configuration and verification that it
    is working correctly.

    1) Does this only work if you have multiple hba's going to the same switch
    versus having two hba's and configuring them for redundancy?

    2) Is there anything that has to be set up to enable this?

    3) Anything special that needs to be done on the storage?

    4) Is there a write paper on how to set this up? I have read the admin
    guide and didn't find anything.

    We have a pair of GS1280's in a cluster connected to an XP128 array.

    Thanks,

    Howard Arnold
