I upgraded my news server (with 3 2940 SCSI controllers) to 2.2.1 from 2.1.5-RELEASE and now and then the server will reboot itself. I look in /var/log/messages and this is the error it reports just before it reboots: Apr 9 16:53:40 news /kernel: sd4(ahc1:6:0): SCB 0x6 - timed out while idle, LASTPHASE == 0x1, SCSISIGI == 0x0 Apr 9 16:53:40 news /kernel: SEQADDR == 0x8 Apr 9 16:53:40 news /kernel: Ordered Tag queued Apr 9 16:53:40 news /kernel: sd4(ahc1:6:0): SCB 0x5 timedout while recovery in progress Apr 9 16:53:41 news /kernel: sd4(ahc1:6:0): SCB 0x6 - timed out while idle, LASTPHASE == 0x1, SCSISIGI == 0x0 Apr 9 16:53:41 news /kernel: SEQADDR == 0x6 Apr 9 16:53:41 news /kernel: sd4(ahc1:6:0): Queueing an Abort SCB Apr 9 16:53:41 news /kernel: sd4(ahc1:6:0): Abort Message Sent Apr 9 16:53:41 news /kernel: sd4(ahc1:6:0): SCB 6 - Abort Completed. Apr 9 16:53:41 news /kernel: sd4(ahc1:6:0): no longer in timeout Apr 9 news /kernel: Ordered Tag sent Apr 9 16:53:50 news /kernel: sd4(ahc1:6:0): SCB 0x5 - timed out while idle, LASTPHASE == 0x1, SCSISIGI == 0x0 Apr 9 16:53:50 news /kernel: SEQADDR == 0x5 Apr 9 16:53:50 news /kernel: Ordered Tag queued And then reboot... Notice the 9 second delay in the log (16:53:41 - 16:53:50). This always happens with sd4, which is a Seagate ST51080N. Termination has been checked. This drive resides on ahc1 (the second controller). This has happen with both AHC_SCBPAGING_ENABLE turned on and off, and AHC_TAGENABLE has always been enabled. Any more thoughts on this? -Dale G.
