______________________
The only Fibre Channel devices displayed by the console show
dev command are those devices that have been assigned to a
wwid<n> environment variable.
Before you start the Tru64 UNIX installation, you must set the
bootdef_dev console environment variable.

6.6.3 Setting the bootdef_dev Console Environment Variable

When booting from Fibre Channel devices, you must set the bootdef_dev
console environment variable to ensure that the installation procedure is
able to boot the system after building the new kernel.
______________________
The bootdef_dev environment variable values must point to
the same HSG80.
After the base operating system has been installed, or after
cluster software has been installed for a cluster member system,
set the bootdef_dev console environment variable again to
provide multiple boot paths (see Section 6.8).
It would do no good to set bootdef_dev for multiple boot paths
now because the installation procedure overwrites the variable.
The following procedure is used for:
The initial Tru64 UNIX installation before booting from CD-ROM.
