The way I know it does not see any DKA devices is because I did a

>>> show device

I was kind of baffled by the results since it listed a SCSI bus. I
had to go to another system and compare the results to see that I was
supposed to see the disks. I expect this is one of those problems
that will go away as soon as I take everything apart and put it
together again. If it was my PC, I would have had it in pieces a long
time ago. Since it is a 4 processor ES40 alphaserver, I think I may
just wait for a tech from HPQ.

The way all the lights are flashing together tells me something, I
just don't know what. I need a magic decoder ring/book/CD or
something.
