Seems like asking for trouble > (I'm sure ken/justin will tell me if I'm all wet..) the morning news: a second rdump failed. and the hard disks did not seem busy during the rdump. note that the system with the tape is a personal workstation with few services, i.e. the disks are not being hammered. i upgraded the asus p2b-ds flash bios. a local dump failed the same old way. i can not find a flash upgrade for the dec dlt2000 tape itself. one thing i forgot to mention, this used to work. i.e. it was either the change from 4.0-current to 3.3-stable or hardware rot. as i tried your back-revved scsi_sa.c, i doubt the former. i do not have a spare scsi controller. i can order one if folk think this will likely solve it. (again note this used to work) as it seems more and more like a hardware issue, i will chase this as an rma through the digital/compaq maze after a bit more coffee. randy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
