Hi folks!

There always have been problems with the SCSI subsystem of my server (dual
PIII 450) since I upgraded to 2.4. Exchanging the disk didn't help. I get
errors from SCSI about once a week, last time the disks were unaccessable
(sysrq-sync/umount printed on the console, but didn't touch the disks).
This time I was lucky enough to capture the error message, but I am not
skilled enough to decode its meaning:

The upper layer (scp to a reiserfs partition) apparently didn't see an
error, but this I don't know for sure. Here's the output of
/proc/scsi/aic7xxx/1:

The other IDs are unused.

Now my question? What actually did happen to cause this error? Is it
hardware-related? _May_ it be caused by faulty RAM? Could this go away by
switching to aic7xxx_old or another version of aic7xxx?

Kernel is 2.4.6 vanilla, compiled with gcc3.0.1.

Thanks for your answers,
					Roland

Definitly hardware related, one of your hdds is beginning to die. Backup
is the next step·

I forgot to tell you that this also happened to a brand-new Cheetah after
5 hours of bonnie...

Generally, there has to be at least some moderate load to be going on on
the bus. This time it was a tape backup of ID 0 running in parallel with
the scp on ID 2.

Ciao,
