Certainly a system implementation can provide the registers and CPU notification mechanism to allow this function. Sun did, but most PC manufacturers don't. The ones that do probably won't give out the information (Compaq, et al). The only way I know this might be possible with commonly available PC hardware would be if Intel included this sort of feature in their chipsets which provide an ECC function using parity memory SIMMs. Otherwise that function is embedded within the SIMM, right?

Thanks for any info (plz Email me direct), The SparQ parallel-port drive is unlikely to be supported unless you can obtain programming documentation for the interface they are using. And I might add that I would *not* be recommending that you purchase one of thes revolting units. The IDE model, for example, is held together with sticky tape, and the rest of the unit continues this fine standard of design and manufacture. In addition to this, the unit doesn't appear to honour any of the standard protocols for removable ATA devices, so you can, eg. remove the disk while the drive is actuve. My advice: buy a Jaz and a Jaz Traveller (both of which we support). -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-hardware Mon Jun 29 01:03:46 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA26205 for freebsd-hardware-outgoing; Mon, 29 Jun 1998 01:03:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from casimir.easynet.fr (casimir.easynet.fr [195.114.64.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA26198 for ; Mon, 29 Jun 1998 01:03:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rama@casimir.easynet.fr) Received: (from rama@localhost) by casimir.easynet.fr (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA23827; Mon, 29 Jun 1998 10:02:44 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from rama) Message-ID: <19980629100244.A23784@easynet.fr> Date: Mon, 29 Jun 1998 10:02:44 +0200 From: David Ramahefason To: Kedar Rajadnya , freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: DPT 2144UWR.

I've seen a number of problems resulting from poor internal SCSI cabling. Integrate your own if you're considering Artecon. Others have suggested CMD which I've heard fair things about.

Maybe people assumed you had read the mailing archives. There's plenty of stuff out there, in particular ccd and the DPT array driver. vinum is just around the corner from working.

Well, I have to agree about something :-) If you want Exabyte, I've heard of some 8700s going cheap in various places. In view of the improvements recently in the drum life of helical scan tapes, I'd be inclined to go for a more recent one.

Exabyte is a good deal, remote sensing people are using them on a daily basis here. They are using tapes like others were using floppies a few years ago. You might want to check the firmware though. We had here a number of odd drives in a EXB-120 juke. It was said that it was the combination that made it behave strangely, but I had problems hooking the thing up to a Sparc20. EXB 8505 are _very_ reliable though. Also, you will be able to read a tape written on one driver on another, which is an advantage.

I'd love that to be the case but the units arrive fully integrated. We don't open them up (normally). Artecon uses fairly cheesy power supplies too. Small wonder they were having power problems as well. Maybe their next product will address these things. They do however have a feature that seems to be somewhat rare among hardware RAID products; an honest to goodness usable serial console interface. /* Matthew N.

I think "notorious" is a more accurate term than "mature". The 8200 is an unholy mix of consumer video and over-the-top digital design. They inherit vacuum-cleaner technology from Olivetti, origami techniques from U-matic, and really should have a fan on the card cage. An 8200 in *ideal* conditions (data centre) will give you long and reliable service.

No doubt there will soon be some higher capacity drives that are as reliable and as inexpensive to use (media is part of the cost.) Just not yet. It's nice to be able to put a few megs on a tape and not sweat the cost of the tape.

Yup. Most of these are 'fixed-price' repairs in the $200-300 bracket.

In particular, it appears that the drum life has been extended by an order of magnitude. The 8200 is not a newer Exabyte, and if you buy a refurbished one, you're running the risk of drum failure in the short term. Note also that the drive firmware hides a lot of the retries. If you write to a drive like this, the data transfer light should be on more or less continuously. More likely, though, you'll see it go off from time to timee while the drive corrects write errors. This is transparent to the system. > I like being able to buy tapes at the corner drug store if I need to. > Unlike the newer, higher capacity Exabytes the 8200's were designed to > use consumer video tapes. (The newer ones require `data quality' tapes.) You can set the new ones to use consumer tapes, too, I think. Since the tapes are no cheaper, and the dropout rate is much higher, I can't see any reason to do this. I strongly recommend buying data grade tapes. > Two Gigs is not a lot of storage these days, but it's enough for many > home and small business situations.

You can get up to 7 GB on a 120m tape, and the units cost in the order of $700 new. DDS-3 will store still more, but they're also more expensive. In general, I'd say that the serious (as opposed to high-end) tape market is dominated by helical scan units based on consumer cartridge formats. Exabyte is based on 8mm video tape, and DDS is based on DAT (digital audio tape). In each case, the medium cost is low and the data capacity is between 2 and 14 GB. Both systems offer data compression, which in my experience (including backing up a lot of gzipped files) gives a storage improvement of about 90%. DDS drives tend to be cheaper, possibly because of the number of manufacturers out there.

The last six or eight years worth of 8200's have been solid too. } In particular, it appears that the drum life has been extended by an } order of magnitude.

The drive hides the retries by default. It is possible to query the drive for the soft error count. That's were you see the incredible redundancy of this design. About a decade ago when they got most of the bugs out of the 8200 we tried a number of different brands of tape. The way-cheap junk brands would sometimes have hundreds of soft errors in 2 Gigs. The Sony tapes would show no soft errors at all! Zero. Crummy, worn-out tapes that work poorly even for video will still work for data on the Exabyte.

And average reliability on DDS is about even with the aging 8200. DDS doesn't have the real estate to provide the redundancy that 8mm does.

It is not just the heads, which have an official lifetime stated in tape-motion-hours, but other unknown parts of the drives that go bump in the night. I used to send 8200s back to the factory for repair, get them back in top operating condition, and then watch the soft error rate slowly climb back up to unacceptable levels in a period of months. I suspect the drives would be ok if they received continuous massive preventive maintenance, like computer equipment was supposed to get once upon a time. There is another problem. The medium is not that robust. I once tried to read archival 8200 tapes of various ages, just to see if it could be done. The tapes had been kept in an air conditioned machine room for since having been written. I found that I could only read (without error) only about half of the tapes that were about 3 years old. I honestly don't know if I would have had much better luck with 9-track open-reel tape or with Babylonian clay tablets, though the total number of bits lost would certainly have been much smaller.

We've got loads of Exabyte drives around here and some are now on FreeBSD boxes. Our Solaris boxes let us know, real polite like, when the Exabytes are dirty. The FreeBSD boxes are writing blind. If you don't clean your Exabytes when they want to be, your backups (and drive life, I believe) suffer.

Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Has anyone ever seen this... I have an NEC 6X SCSI CDROM. About a week ago I was trying to install some FreeBSD src and got a wierd error in the install script. I looked at the line and it read: cat s${i}.>? | tar --unlink -xpzf - -C /usr/src I thought, what the hell is the > before the ?? I then tried to tar tvzf a package and got a CRC error. The CDROM is fucked, but sparsely. Most of the data on a CD is readable. The disk above was a 2.2.6-RELEASE, I just put in a 2.2.5-RELEASE and the errant data is exactly the same. I tried cleaning the drive. No difference. Has anyone seen this before? I have read these CDs fine before. Nothing else has changed. It is attached to a BusLogic PCI adapter. I'm not on the list, so... Any insight is much appreciated.

With luck, perhaps others can learn from my mistakes, too.... In an attempt to be reasonably complete, I'm including as much information as I can that seems relevant. As a result, this message is very long. I should also point out that although I'm fairly familiar with UNIX & some other (multi-user) computing environments, I'm still pretty "green" with respect to PC hardware. The machine in question is a main fileserver; it is running FreeBSD-2.2.6-RELEASE; it has a couple of SCSI controllers (Adaptec 2940UW & 2940), a couple of wide SCSI disk drives, a narrow SCSI disk drive & a (narrow) SCSI CD drive; it also has a couple (each) of external (narrow SCSI) disk & tape drives. ahc0 is the 2940UW (internal devices only); ahc1 is the 2940 (external devices only). I had some "interesting" times getting the termination on ahc0 right; what finally (until last night) seemed to work was to: * Have nothing connected to ahc0's external (wide) SCSI connector; * Have the wide SCSI devices connected to ahc0's internal wide SCSI connector; * Have the narrow SCSI devices connected to ahc0's internal narrow SCSI connector; * Manually set termination on ahc0 set to "high byte on"; * Have the external devices connected to ahc1's external connector; * Use ahc1's default "automatic" termination setting. Last night, I was working on getting amanda-2.4 up & running, and was testing it. I had set up slightly less than (the "upper") half of one of the wide drives, a Micropolis 4691WS, as a 4GB filesystem for FTP about a week or so ago, and that seemed to have been stable. So I made a filesystem out of the remaining part of the disk, so that was a 4.5GB filesystem that I was using as an amanda "holding disk". I had run several tests, with the only problems I could see being in my amanda configuration, but overall, things were going OK (except that the Ethernet controller, de0, was reporting CRC & alignment errors whenever I put much load on it). Then I performed a final set of tweaks to the amanda config, & fired off another test starting at about 4:45 PM. When I got back in this morning, I found that the machine had gone catatonic shortly after 6:00 PM. I'll show what "disklabel" shows for the Micropolis drive, the device probes from the boot that preceded this stuff, then the messages leading up to and including the problems, and then the boot probes from the recent re-boot... which, strangely enough, don't seem to show the CD drive. If there's anything else that would be useful, please let me know. shrimp[7]% sudo disklabel sd2 # /dev/rsd2c: type: SCSI disk: sd2 label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 1106 sectors/unit: 17780058 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 1048576 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 65*) b: 4194304 1048576 swap # (Cyl. 65*- 326*) c: 17780058 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 1106*) d: 9437184 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 587*) e: 2097152 5242880 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 326*- 456*) f: 2097152 7340032 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 456*- 587*) g: 8342874 9437184 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 587*- 1106*) Jun 19 14:41:24 shrimp /kernel: Copyright (c) 1992-1998 FreeBSD Inc.

Then terminate the internal end of the narrow chain, and run it through your narrow controller. Terminate the external and of the narrow chain, and turn termination off on the controller.

The machines could both be pinged successfully, although the first 5 or so packets were dropped each time I tried. Also note that the 8523T doesn't even have an AUI port. Both machines have been cvsup'd and make world' recently (2.2.6-STABLE). Both machines had an uptime of at least 7 days before this hang. The system clocks are not synched, so it is more than likely that this happened to both machines at precisely the same time. There was nothing noteworthy in the logs happening immediately before these messages.

Although I hope an "ifconfig de0 media 10baseT/UTP" will solve the problem, it does seem inherently wrong that an AUI port should be enabled on a card which doesn't have one. What's more disconcerting is that a single event could trigger all the machines on a subnet with this card to simultaneously stop responding.

I just returned a LinkSys ProConnect 4 CPU switch yesterday because it seems to squash any attempts at serial or ps/2 PnP probing. FreeBSD 2.2.6 also seemed unable to detect the PS/2 mouse through it at boot. After that disaster I figured I'd see what people have had good luck with. I'm looking for a 4 port solution with PS/2 and AT keyboard support and at least PS/2 mouse (good serial support if possiable) support that works with PnP. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Since the price tag on that stuff is so high, I decided to look again for more mainstream alternatives. I started looking at SuperMicro's site for motherboards for the first time in a long time, and found they had one with 9 slots, which isn't too badly priced according to what I found on PriceWatch. The board has 5 "primary" and 4 "secondary" PCI slots. Wether this means it uses a standard PCI-PCI bridge or dual host-PCI bridges, or something different entirely (using the I2O procesor?) I don't know. I know FreeBSD doesn't support I2O yet (if ever?), but that shouldn't keep it from running, I hope. So, has anyone used FreeBSD with this board successfully?

The difference is that the NDH is slightly older with PPRos and the LDH is with PIIs. In fact, I just got one for a project (which runs linux), but I would expect it to work reasonably well.

Any suggestions would be great. To incorporate CAM, follow the instructions in the readme: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/cam/README or ftp://ftp.kdm.org/pub/FreeBSD/cam/README The patches that are out there were made May 20th, so you'll probably want a snapshot from somewhere around that vintage from current.freebsd.org. We're working on a new CAM snapshot, with the aim of having it out sometime this weekend. (can't make any promises, but that's the plan..)
