I have a Conner CTD-8000 SCSI-2 Tape drive on a adaptec 2940W PCI SCSI contoller. Recently, I wanted to repartition everything, so I backed everything up via dump. Aug 26 22:45:06 playpen /kernel: ahc0: target 6 synchronous at 5.0MB/s, offset = 0xf Aug 26 22:45:06 playpen /kernel: (ahc0:6:0): "ARCHIVE Python 28388-XXX 5.28" type 1 removable SCSI 2 Aug 26 22:45:06 playpen /kernel: st0(ahc0:6:0): Sequential-Access density code 0x13, 512-byte blocks, write-enabled After repartioning, I proceeded to restore. All of my partitions restored correctly, except for /usr. When I tried to restore /usr, it goes for a while and then when it gets to some file in /usr/share/man, I get the following error: Aug 26 22:37:35 playpen /kernel: st0(ahc0:6:0): HARDWARE FAILURE info:8000 asc:44,80 Aug 26 22:37:38 playpen /kernel: st0(ahc0:6:0): HARDWARE FAILURE info:f000 asc:44,80 Aug 26 22:37:38 playpen last message repeated 13 times At this point, the light on my tape drive is blinking, and I can't even eject the tape (perhaps it is still "mounted"??). It seems to me that there is a media failure here, but why would this cause a hardware failure??
