Pat & Tom - I wanted to clarify some of what I've supplied you about naming issues and accordingly got this together at home (and ran it thru document here...don't have document there). It doesn't cover in detail which module names get edited or the like, but goes over the algorithms and collects what I think are the right approaches. I wanted to get it into your respective hands soon enough that it might help, since I know you, Tom, are working on writing this stuff up. I left the ir-scsinaming.* stuff on evms:: in scsi$work:[everhart] so Tom can get at it if he likes. Glenn
