CD-ROM Changer SCSI-compatability problem under DEC VAX/VMS Hi, The Pioneer DRM-600 CD-ROM Changer doesn't work with VAX/VMS. I tried that with a CD-ROM produced by DEC of-course. I tried a VAXstation 3100 with a generic SCSI interface and got "fatal drive error" when trying to mount the device under VMS V5.3 (illegal mode sense). I tried a microVAXII with a CMD CQD200TM Q-Bus adapter and got "volume is not software enabled" after several minutes when trying to mount the device under VMS V5.4. Writing a simple program (VMS-pass-thru-SCSI via allocate) to do a SCSI inquiry command didn't work: DMA error: odd byte count (in $analyse/error)! Unfortunaltely the DRM-600 returns 59 bytes of inquiry data. The $SHOW DEVICE shows a RRD40 device CD-ROM reader. Anbybody with the same SCSI-problems?
