I have a Dell ASC-39230(B) U320 SCSI controller. If I use the linux-2.6-xen kernel I am getting an "Invalid Sequencer interrupt" and the system hangs after this. But if I use the linux-2.6-xen0 kernel it works well. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can make it go away? Thanks, Aravindh Puthiyaparambil Xen Development Team Unisys, Tredyffrin PA ACPI: PCI Interrupt

I am currently testing an Overland Tape storage unit with a LTO-3 drive on CentOS 4.4. After a random amount of time but usually when we have backed up about 0.5-1TB we get scsi errors which cause the backup to fail. I have rebuilt the box with Solaris 10 x86 and Windoze to prove the hardware and have successfully backed up over 3TB on each OS without error. Can anyone offer advice on how to find

Hi, Currently we are running CentOS 4.x on a 2-way Opteron machine. This machine, through a SCSI host adapter (Adaptec), is connected to a 2TB storage unit (an external RAID-5 disk array) Until our recent unintentional power trip, everything was fine and smooth. We have been experiencing complication accessing the storage ( it could be either intermittent filesystem error, partition could not be

I have an Adaptec 392320 Ultra320 SCSI adapter. I am running x86_64 SLES9 SP3. When I build x86_64 Xen with just the 2.6-xen kernel + initrd, I am getting the following error on the module load. But if I go back to building separate xenU and xen0 kernels without initrd the device works without any issues. Any idea what is going wrong here? Am I leaving something out of my initrd? Here is the

Hello, I am trying to use a 1.5TB Eonstor raid array with FreeBSD 7.0, but I don't understand whether it is the raid or the scsi card or something else that is causing the computer problems when accessing the raid. My problem is that soon after recognizing the attached disk during boot, FreeBSD appears to hang for about 10 seconds and then says ahd0: Recovery Initiated - Card

I?m running centos 4.3 (2.6.9-22.ELsmp) on a box ,and running windows XP on vmware 5.5.1. I have 3 scsi disk on this server,sda for linux system,sdb for vmware disk,and sdc for other. Resently I found that something wrong with the second disk,the guest os windowsxp copying files from a samba server(another box) to it?s disk,and for some time,maybe 5hours,3or1hours, the kernel said that sdb is

Hi ... Can someone tell me whether or not this is indicative of a hardware, or software, problem? It happened a few times today, on two different drives, and it seem to "self-recover", since the server is still purring along without any noticeable problems: neptune# grep "timed out" /var/log/messages Jul 25 03:52:51 neptune /kernel: (da2:ahd1:0:2:0): SCB 0x40 - timed out

Hi. I've recently borrowed a SuperMicro 6013P-8 from a vendor for the purposes of testing it to see if FreeBSD and these machines will make a good replacements for our current flock of 11 Netra T1s running solaris. Things are going very well with the tests, with the glaring exception of the following crash: While doing some significant disk operations: du, deleting a different part of the

I have a question regarding the building of the unified xen kernel (linux-2.6-xen) and the use of initrd. In the past I built both xen0 and xenU kernels; the xen0 default configurations had SCSI and Fusion MPT support compiled into the kernel. Now, they are built as modules. The problem is that I am unable to boot the xen kernel built that way, even though I am building an initrd. I have

I am attempting to get multipath working with device-mapper (CentOS 4.2 and 4.3). It works on EVERY install of mine from RH (also v4.2, 4.3), but the same multipath.conf imported to all my installs of CentOS do not work. Note that I have tested a working 4.2 configuration file from RH on CentOS 4.2 and a working 4.3 configuration (it changed slightly) on CentOS 4.3. Neither worked. Our production

Greetings, In looking for inexpensive JBOD and/or RAID solutions to use with ZFS, I''ve run across the recent "VTrak" SAS/SATA systems from Promise Technologies, specifically their E-class and J-class series: E310f FC-connected RAID: http://www.promise.com/product/product_detail_eng.asp?product_id=175 E310s SAS-connected RAID:

Use the proper modern API to transfer cache ownership for incoherent DMA. Note that this moves the DMA helpers to the main lib82596.c file, so that they can use virt_to_dma.

Use the new non-coherent DMA API including proper ownership transfers. This includes adding additional calls to dma_sync_desc_dev as the old syncing was rather ad-hoc.

Hi I have a quad processor Compaq Proliant 5500. The output from dmesg seems strange (I have also sent a copy to freebsd-smp to ask about smp issues) and there are also some performance issues which I suspect are smp related. Could anyone who fels so inclined please take a look at the output and let me have any comments. Thanks _______________________________ Copyright (c) 1992-2002 The
