TOPIC -----------------------------------------
On a server with more than one volume, what determines the order of the
volumes in the Chooser log-on sequence?
When our office server had only one volume, it obviously was the at the top
of the list. When we added a CD-ROM drive, it took the top spot in the
volume list. When I recently added a second hard drive to make it three
volumes, it was inserted after the CD-ROM and before the startup volume.
The startup volume is still last on the list.
DISCUSSION ------------------------------------
Our tests and information provided by engineers involved in the development
of the server revealed the following:
- At the server, devices are displayed in Finder order: startup volume
first, followed by SCSI drives in descending order of SCSI address,
followed by devices connected via the drive port in the order returned
by the getVolInfo call.
- At the workstation, the devices are displayed in exactly the opposite
order, placing the startup volume at the bottom of the list.
