We're using a Dell Poweredge 4300 with FreeBSD 3.1, and we've just added a 36GB IBM disk. Not strictly a FreeBSD question, perhaps, but this disk doesn't probe right. When the da driver tries to attach, we get the following error: (da3:ahc0:0:3:0): READ CAPACITY. CDB: 25 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 (da3:ahc0:0:3:0): NOT READY asc:4,2 (da3:ahc0:0:3:0): Logical unit not ready, initializing cmd. required (da3:ahc0:0:3:0): fatal error, failed to attach to device (da3:ahc0:0:3:0): lost device (da3:ahc0:0:3:0): removing device entry More dmesg: ahc0: <Adaptec aic7890/91 Ultra2 SCSI adapter> rev 0x00 int a irq 10 on pci2.4.0 ahc0: aic7890/91 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 16/255 SCBs ahc1: <Adaptec aic7860 SCSI adapter> rev 0x03 int a irq 10 on pci2.6.0 ahc1: aic7860 Single Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 3/255 SCBs <snip> da0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <QUANTUM QM318000TD-SCA N1K0> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: 80.0MB/s transfers (40.0MHz, offset 31, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 17366MB (35566499 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 2213C) da2 at ahc0 bus 0 target 2 lun 0 da2: <IBM DRHS36D 0110> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device da2: 80.0MB/s transfers (40.0MHz, offset 15, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled da2: 34732MB (71133000 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 4427C) cd0 at ahc1 bus 0 target 5 lun 0 cd0: <NEC CD-ROM DRIVE:465 1.03> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-2 device cd0: 20.0MB/s transfers (20.0MHz, offset 15) cd0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present da1 at ahc0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 da1: <WDIGTL WDE18300 ULTRA2 1.20> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da1: 80.0MB/s transfers (40.0MHz, offset 31, 16bit) da1: 17375MB (35586001 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 2215C) (da3:ahc0:0:3:0): READ CAPACITY.

I'm no SCSI expert, but that sounded weak to me. (We tried it anyway, and it didn't work :-). The BIOS probe identifies the disk as IBM DRSH. (The other disk in the machine identified as IBM DRHS36D). They are *supposed* to be the same model - that's what it says on the disks. I don't think it's just a bum disk, because we accidentally ordered two new disks (in addition to the one already in the machine) of the same type - tried them both - same result. We've also tried other slots in the backplane (different IDs). The jumpers are set on the disk for "Auto-Start" and "Disable Target Initiated Sync Negitiation". Can anyone help to shed some light? Thanks... Please CC me on any replies, and also my colleague (mjabali@mintel.com) - it's Friday and I'm off down the pub - but he's in the States and has another few hours on this yet :-). I'll be back in tomorrow :-(. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
