you see i got this CI....

[SYSMSH at ulkyvx.bitnet]

Due to a series of upgrades on our VAXcluster I had some left over hardware
that I used to beef up a couple of our Ultrix VAXes.  I now have a VAX-750
running Ultrix with the CI-750 hardware attached to it.

Now I realize that Ultrix does not currently support the CI.  It sees that
it is there, there is a ci780.bin microcode file in the 2.0 distribution,
and there is a bunch of stuff in the error logger related to the CI.  So,
obviously DEC is heading in that direction.  Especially if you read Charlie
Matco....hahaha...

Has anybody done anything with the CI?  I've kept it primarily in the hope
of future support (I'd love to use our cluster's tape drives) and to help
out field service (they like vms diagnostics).  We are running 2.0-1.

Thanks...

Ps: I've already been using HSC backup to make full saves of my Ultrix
disks.  Has anyone else tried to disassemble the HSC backup/restore
utilities to just deal with the series of logical blocks in a partition
instead of the whole volume?
