It is usually a good idea to predefine a full range of devices, control

I have never had a problem predefining either devices or even control
units in an IOCDS.
As a general rule there should not be any problem especially with *device
sensing*.
Absent any Hiper's I would go ahead and define the full set.

Check if you are receiving two controllers with 1 drive each (as coded in

In the second case, the better IOCP is:
