If you are going straight into a > switch, it might be better to change the port to a fabric port instead. This host has it's isp device directly connected to a fiber channel array. The array is not disappearing, or being rebooted, nor is there any other machine rebooting or resetting. I see these same errors on another box that has 3 arrays connected to a qlogic switch. I seem to only see these when the machine is heavily accessing the disks.
