We have seen hangs, or pauses on machines with ciss controllers during GEOM setup. The length of the pause varied with the number of GEOMs loaded. It was ususally around a minute with a minimal set. It would seem logical the period would increase with more disk arrays. (We only had one). My own, untested, theory is GEOM is tasting the passX devices provided by the ciss driver and becoming confused by something.
