>Now we have STATX80 (a disk verifier for 3380's) and it said the disk >* Don't trust STATX80 >* Find a trustworthy STATX for SP/4 (still looking). I assume this is just STATX w/ the 3380 mod. I think this should work just fine in Rel 4 as it does real I/O to the disk to find out much and then compares the data w/ stuff incore which should be unaffected by the hashing code. Of course I could be wrong about this, and it doesn't help explain your observations... The finding of two copies of a file on a disk is one of the symptoms of the bad CARD though. -njg
