Hello,

I recently "upgraded" our main mail/WWW server from Linux
1.8.somethingorother to FreeBSD-2.1.5.  Last night the machine
hung, and this morning a coworker rebooted it before I could try
to log in to the console.  The symptoms that he reported were that
the machine responded to pings but nothing else.  Digging through the
syslog, I found this:


Sep 17 22:19:29 gizmo /kernel: sd1(ahc0:1:0): timed out in dataout phase, SCSISIGI == 0x0
Sep 17 22:19:32 gizmo /kernel: sd1(ahc0:1:0): BUS DEVICE RESET message queued.
Sep 17 22:19:34 gizmo /kernel: Bus Device Reset Message Sent
Sep 17 22:19:35 gizmo /kernel: sd1(ahc0:1:0): Bus Device Reset delivered. 2 SCBs aborted
Sep 17 22:19:35 gizmo /kernel: sd1(ahc0:1:0): UNIT ATTENTION asc:29,0
Sep 17 22:19:35 gizmo /kernel: sd1(ahc0:1:0):  Power on, reset, or bus device reset occurred
Sep 17 22:19:35 gizmo /kernel: , retries:4


The very net log entry was the start of the bootup messages, which I've
included at the end of this message in the event that they're helpful.

I don't know enough to decipher the above messages, other than they
certainly seem to point to sd1 (a Micropolis 4221) or the Adaptec
2940 SCSI controller itself.  If there's any more information I
can provide that will help, please let me know.

The only hardware that changed during the upgrade process was the
Ethernet card -- the machine had an old 3c590 in it which didn't
seem to work with FreeBSD, so I put a brand new SMC EtherPower card
in.

Any suggestions?  I'm going to come under a lot of fire if our server
doesn't work reliably when I was the one who pushed for FreeBSD! :-)

BTW: Other than this particular problem, which is likely not FreeBSD at
all, you guys outdid yourselves yet again.  I've installed 2.1.5 a
couple times now (including on my box at home) and it seems really rock
solid.  

Thanks for any pointers.  Please CC to me since I'm not currently
subscribed to -hackers.
