A lot of times I will let questions go by that I know the answer to simply because it's so easy that I know someone else is going to respond. Also, I don't generally answer questions that I have to do a lot of digging on because the questioner didn't put in enough data. Such as your SCSI question. You posted the dmesg but you still haven't posted the model of HP server. More importantly, you didn't post the overview data which if you had you would have got an answer to at once. For example if you had asked: "I have a server that is giving errors on heavy disk load and I have a narrow SCSI Seagate disk and a wide SCSI Quantum in it, make and model #'s XXXX" that would have got an immediate "don't do that your termination is always screwed in such a scenario" This is assuming you are mixing interfaces, which is still to be determined. Now granted you probably aren't aware of that, and I don't recall even reading your original SCSI question anyway, I might have not got it. I might have answered it anyway simply because I know that SCSI is getting to be a lost art for many people and that a lot of people here might have forgot about much of their institutional knowledge on SCSI, even if I had to do the digging for it. Also one other thing that is important - if you don't get an answer within a week or so, ask again, politely. Ted
