Ok, I have no idea what you are asking about the names. Jim On Sat, 7 Oct 2017, william degnan via vcf-midatlantic wrote:

working through from VAX 3100 / microvax SCSI drives. Three questions / looking for confirmation
1) true/false - it does not matter which scsi connector port you use, as long as the last drive's unconnected port has a terminator
2) true/false - drives have their names (DKB500, DKB300, etc) and they travel with the drive even if removed
3) true/false - show dev shows all drives attached to the computer that are properly terminated.
4) If question 2 is true and there are two drives with the same name, how does the VAX handle this? ignore the 2nd of same name?
Thanks
Bill
