Hi, I'm running debian Etch on a no name server with a Quantum DLT-v4 SATA drive. All my backups on tape are failing with kernel errors (see below). The tape is fresh, so it isn't a bad medium I guess.
After googling I tried appending "irqpoll acpi=noirq", but that didn't make any difference. Any suggestions? ------------------------------- Apr 1 10:39:42 debian kernel: ata2.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xa0) Apr 1 10:39:42 debian kernel: ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen Apr 1 10:39:42 debian kernel: ata2.00: (BMDMA stat 0x20) Apr 1 10:39:42 debian kernel: ata2.00: tag 0 cmd 0xa0 Emask 0x5 stat 0x51 err 0x51 (timeout) Apr 1 10:39:49 debian kernel: ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient Apr 1 10:40:12 debian kernel: ata2: port failed to respond (30 secs) Apr 1 10:40:12 debian kernel: ata2: soft resetting port Apr 1 10:40:13 debian kernel: ata2: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) Apr 1 10:40:13 debian kernel: ata2.00: configured for UDMA/133 Apr 1 10:40:13 debian kernel: ata2: EH complete Apr 1 10:40:13 debian kernel: st0: Current [descriptor]: sense key: Medium Error Apr 1 10:40:13 debian kernel: Additional sense: Address mark not found for data field Apr 1 10:40:13 debian kernel: Descriptor sense data with sense descriptors (in hex): Apr 1 10:40:13 debian kernel: 72 03 13 00 00 00 00 0e 09 0e 00 51 00 03 00 00 Apr 1 10:40:13 debian kernel: 00 00 00 00 a0 51 Apr 1 10:40:25 debian kernel: st0: Current: sense key: Unit Attention Apr 1 10:40:25 debian kernel: Additional sense: Scsi bus reset occurred Apr 1 10:41:08 debian kernel: ata2.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xa0) Apr 1 10:41:08 debian kernel: ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen Apr 1 10:41:08 debian kernel: ata2.00: (BMDMA stat 0x20) Apr 1 10:41:08 debian kernel: ata2.00: tag 0 cmd 0xa0 Emask 0x5 stat 0x51 err 0x51 (timeout) Apr 1 10:41:15 debian kernel: ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: ata2: port failed to respond (30 secs) Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: ata2: soft resetting port Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: ata2: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: ata2.00: configured for UDMA/133 Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: ata2: EH complete Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: st0: Current [descriptor]: sense key: Medium Error Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: Additional sense: Address mark not found for data field Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: Descriptor sense data with sense descriptors (in hex): Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: 72 03 13 00 00 00 00 0e 09 0e 00 51 00 03 00 00 Apr 1 10:41:39 debian kernel: 00 00 00 00 a0 51 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
