I've been told that need to adjust the timeout values for the =
driver/backup software.  I've adjusted the timeouts for legato, without =
much luck.  Has anyone out there hacked the driver for this purpose? If =
so, can you give me some pointers as to the best place to look/start?=20

- Thanks,


Todd

Hi Folks,=20


I've been down a very frustrating road, trying to get an ADIC Scalar 100 =
with=20
two SDLT 220 HVD drives working.  Its connected to a DELL 2550 server, =
via=20
two Apaptec 2944uw HVD cards. (1 card is connected to the robotic arm =
and an=20
SDLT drive, and the other card is connected directly to the remaining =
SDLT=20
card.)=20


I'm running Legato Networker 7.1


I'll try and run back ups, and they might work for a time, but then I =
get SCSI error messages in /var/log/messages. Sometimes, this breaks =
backups completely, sometimes, this just breaks one drive, and the other =
works fine. I've enclosed a sample of those messages with the hope that =
someone out there might know what it means, for I have no=20
idea.  I've called ADAPTEC, and they say that Suse 9 is not a supported =
OS for this card, so they couldn't help me. =20

Also, I've done the following things in the SCSI Card BIOS screen, via =
the support I did get from adaptec:=20

-Set the "Sync Transfer Rate" to "Async" for the SCSI Id of the =
"jukebox" only. =20
-Set "Initiate Wide Negotiation" to "No"
-Set "Enable Disconnect" to "No"
-Set "Send Start Unit Command" to "No"

The thought was that by doing the above, it would slow down the messages =
being sent to the drives, and therefore avoid any conflicts.=20

Yet, I still get the following messages.  Does anyone know what this =
means? Do=20
I need to change the BIOS settings for the drives, also? Or will the =
jukebox=20
settings do?

- Thanks,

Todd

ps. Here's the /var/log/messages output:
