AFAIK, it happens synchronously with respect to the first one.

That's all I have. The CF was nixed due to cost.

John, did you even consider running an ICF on your CPs? I don't know if you

for is GRS* it can work, and might allow you to convert all

But I seem to recall a firmware refresh fixing this - Config OSA off/on. I
don't recall needing a POR to change this parameter.
POR shouldn't be required, at all.
Like the old IRMA cards, the microcode is loaded everytime the card is
refreshed.

This was discussed at a vendor disclosure. Now that it's public knowledge, I'm
just curious about who will actually use it. Before responding, be sure to read

Anyone done this?

I must be misunderstanding your context.
COMPAT Mode hasn't been supported since either 1.2 or 1.3.
We had to convert going from 2.10 to 1.4.

There are two red books discussing it. You also need a $$$ microcode
