Commercial Systems Division IntroductionBeginning with MPE/iX Release 6.5, it is possible to configure up to 511 spindles, an increase from the present limit of 255 disks. Configuring More Than 255 DisksThe existing utilities volutil and mirvutil are used to configure more than 255 disks. There are no interface changes to these utilities to configure more than 255 disks.
User Interface Changes
Forward/Backward Compatibility IssuesThere are no compatibility issues between 6.5 and 6.0 or between 6.5 and 5.0/5.5. A system that has been installed with 6.5 can be back-dated to 6.0 without any problem, as long as it does not have more than 255 spindles configured. The same holds good for back-dating from 6.5 to 5.0/5.5.
