Hello,

Upon returning from a weeks vacation, I was dismayed to find my home
file server (running 4.8-STABLE) had crashed.  The box in question has
an Adaptec Host adapter

ahc0: <Adaptec 2940A Ultra SCSI adapter> port 0xf800-0xf8ff mem 0xfedfe000-0xfedfefff irq 10 at device 13.0 on pci0
aic7860: Ultra Single Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 3/253 SCBs

and seven identical SCSI drives

The box rebooted and failed to come up to it's normal state because the the
vinum volume that was running off this SCSI disk system failed to load.

It looks like SCSI disk da1 was timing out but recovered.  This is
speculation on my part.  Upon rebooting today, da1 seems to be OK?

May 10 07:03:00 judeah /kernel: da1 at ahc0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0

May 10 07:03:00 judeah /kernel: da1: 1920MB (3933040 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 244C)


So, the question, do I have a hardware failure?  If so, is it the
Adaptec 2940/UW controller or the SCSI disk?  When I get this resolved,
I'll obviously have to figure out how to fix my corrupt vinum volume :(
