I have a system that I've been using for amanda backups of my network for a couple of years. It's currently running 2.2.8-STABLE and amanda-2.4.1p1. As of a few months ago, I have been unable to get 1 local and 1 remote filesystem to back up to tape on this machine. If I do a simple "dump" of the problem local filesystem to tape, it works. I have tried backing up these two filesystems using almost all combinations of (no) holding disk / (no) compression. I've cleaned the heads and tried a number of fresh new tapes. Anyway, I get the following message upon failure: Dec 19 22:10:57 pcfb1 /kernel: st1(ahc0:5:0): Target Busy Dec 19 22:10:57 pcfb1 last message repeated 5 times dmesg for the SCSI stuff is: ahc0 rev 0 int a irq 11 on pci0:10:0 ahc0: aic7870 Single Channel, SCSI Id=7, 16 SCBs ahc0 waiting for scsi devices to settle (ahc0:0:0): "TOSHIBA MK537FB/ 6258" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd0(ahc0:0:0): Direct-Access 1015MB (2079838 512 byte sectors) (ahc0:3:0): "SEAGATE SX410800N 7102" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd1(ahc0:3:0): Direct-Access 8347MB (17096357 512 byte sectors) (ahc0:5:0): "ARCHIVE Python 28388-XXX 4.98" type 1 removable SCSI 2 st1(ahc0:5:0): Sequential-Access density code 0x13, drive empty (ahc0:6:0): "TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-3501TA 3384" type 5 removable SCSI 2 cd0(ahc0:6:0): CD-ROM can't get the size The tape drive is last on the chain and is internally terminated (active, as I recall). Any ideas? I'd really like to get all of my backups working cleanly again. H To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
