I have read the post in this mailing list concerning the full queue problem. I use this machine as a www server and have a lot of traffic going to it. I have been getting frequent crashes recently. I have trapped the errors leading up to the crashes here. Also I don't have the firmware release that was stated in the message from Justin. I have another drive that has the 912L firmware though. The drive in question has the following spec. Feb 10 10:36:26 Tank /kernel: (ahc0:0:0): "QUANTUM XP34300W 589H" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 ^^^^ Not 912L? I just found out from Quantum Tech Support that I can upgrade 589H to 915L using the same upgrade firmware as 912 -> 915. Is there a way that I can upgrade this to 912L and then 915L? The firmware upgrade sez that the upgrade is only for 912L -> 915L.
