Subject:   Dump and 2.1R problem??

Are there any known problems with dump and 2.1R.

Recently, I performed a level 0 dump on a 2.1R system (ALL UFS) and
got input/output (possibly hardware) errors.  There were also some errors
about the controller card being dead (NCR53C810).

The only thing that actually made it in syslog were the following:

vm_fault: pager input (probably hardware) error, PID 0 failure
swap_pager: I/O error - pagein failed; blkno 456, size 4096, error 5

etc.

The interesting thing was that everything would work fine in single user
mode, but not in multi-user (even though no one else was online).

Sorry I can't be more specific here, but the errors scrolled two quickly
and once the error occured I could not do anything with the system.
Every command I tried resulted in an input/ouput error.


Any Ideas?
