To: freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org Date: Thu, 27 Nov 1997 11:06:04 -0500 (EST) From: "Stan Brown" X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk The problems that I was strugling with thatI thought were ccd problems apera to really be problems with the driver for my Adaptec 154x card (ah0 device). I am able to crash the system, just by mounting a single drive and doing a simle iozone on it! Te version that am runing is 2.2 STABLE from a few months agao. Is this a known problem? Is ther any way I can further diagnose this? What happens is that if I run say iozone 610 things will churn away for a few mwnutes, andthe first thing I know the computer isrebooting! Is there a crash dump fiile or a system log I can look in? /var/log/messages does not have anything of interest, and I have not managed to catch a message on the console. I took the 3 dsks in question and installed them on an HP workstation, created a striped array of them, and loaded all the data on them I had been trying under FreeBSD. No problems. I would not *think* this could be a bad controler card. Should I upgrade to 2.2.5? Would this fix the problem? Thanks for any input on this. -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 770-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95. Buy, lemmings, buy!
