Fast Path Support for Smart Array 53xx Series Adapter (KZPDC)  



OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.3-2 supports KZPDC, a Smart Array 53xx series backplane RAID controller that uses Ultra2 SCSI 160 MB/s disks. The KZPDC is supported for direct-attached storage only. PKRdriver is the software component that supports KZPDC. OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.3-2 enhancements provide Fast Path support for the KZPDC. Fast Path support is designed for use in a multiprocessor system and automatically redirects I/O from the primary CPU to different CPUs. You can change it either programmatically or by using DCL commands.

For more information, refer to the HP OpenVMS System Manager's Manual.
