Subject:   ataidle - causing apache & cvs timeouts
Message-ID:  <539c60b90711281405n3edf0124p2570d5b4b36f6cb0@mail.gmail.com>

I'm running ataidle on my personal server to save electricity.
However, every time it has to spin up a drive whatever I'm accessing
(apache, cvs, etc) gives an error instead of waiting for the disk.  If
I then access it again after a couple seconds once the disk is active
it works fine.  Any idea how to fix this?

Relevant parts of dmesg:

ad7: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA48 retrying (1 retry left) LBA=640790375
ad7: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA48 retrying (0 retries left) LBA=640790375
ad7: FAILURE - READ_DMA48 timed out LBA=640790375


Thanks,
Steve
