I'm guessing this could be known to others on the list, but I haven't seen it
mentioned, so posting just in case.
There doesn't seem to be mention of any recovery effort in the comments (that I
could see).

Do you mean "sam"?
I thought "smit(ty)" was AIX's counterpart to HP-UX's "sam".

I took a look at all the lines you mentioned. BDAL3-13, BDIN, BSYNC, and
BBS7 are all active and jump around in some manner. BRPLY is still the only
line that does not have any activity on it. None of the BDAL lines seem

The Acer PC I was using to write the image to the SCSI drive has gone kaput.
Clearly PSU (not plugtop mains fuse).
Its a non standard PSU and no schematic available.
Fall back is to get one of the SLU's (other than the console) on the
KDJ11-E going and TU58 it.
