There are a set of error message definitions in 

/usr/src/sys/cam/scsi/scsi_all.c, in the data structure
static struct asc_table_entry asc_text[]. (The list is too long to 
include here)
 
Most of them are mentioned in the SCSI-2 spec. The spec does not
explain what disk behavior triggers each message though. Also, a few of 
the messages in the scsi_all.c code are not defined in the SCSI spec 
documents that I was able to download. The"Failure Prediction Threshold
Exceeded" message is one of the undefined ones.

Can anyone let me know what disk behaviour triggers each message? I'm
interested in the following 3 messages in particular:
	- Pheripheral device write fault field replaceable unit
	- Diagnostic failure: ASCQ=Component ID field replaceable unit
	- Failure Prediction Threshold Exceeded field replaceable unit

thanks,

-nisha
