Alphastation 500/333 SCSI problems....
Hi All -
I just "upgraded" on of my multias to an Alphstation 500/333.
One of the drives I migrated,
Vendor: IBM-PSG Model: DRHS36D !# Rev: 0272
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03
Detected scsi disk sdb at scsi1, channel 0, id 4, lun 0
Is having all sorts of problems in this machine - the SCSI
bus is constantly being reset and errors delivered.
This usually happens when attempting to back up from
tape (I usualyl use dump, but it has also failed
with tar)- originally I thought it might be because the
ISP1020 driver doesn't handle disconnects/reconnects
(I saw messages in the log and some vague references
to it in various archives).
I added an inexpensive AHA-2906 and attached my DAT to
that - the messages relating to that device are gone.
This isn't a Debian installation - the folks here seem
very Alpha knowledgeable so I figured I'd ask.
I'm using a 2.2.21 kernel.
Thanks for any help!
