It has four SATA drives in a RAID10, connected to the system in pairs on Promise and Via on-board controllers. Now on every boot, I see several messages like this for the drives connected to the VIA controller (VT6420): ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen ata2.00: tag 0 cmd 0xb0 Emask 0x2 stat 0x50 err 0x0 (HSM violation) ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0xb0 Emask 0x2 stat 0x50 err 0x0 (HSM violation) What do these mean? Also, for the first of the two drives on the Promise/FastTrak PDC20378 controller, I see messages like this: ata3: translated ATA stat/err 0x50/00 to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/00/00 What about those? I saw none of that under 2.6.17.x. Should I be worried? --=20 martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:" net@madduck =20 spamtraps: madduck.bogus@madduck.net =20 the unix philosophy basically involves giving you enough rope to hang yourself. and then some more, just to be sure. --7JfCtLOvnd9MIVvH Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature (GPG/PGP) Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFVJGEIgvIgzMMSnURAs/8AKCqCqZhnS1SYpKL9CWyu2Vqf+KpgACdFOyX EmbUTjxGgirpOSl0RsBgSIQ= =6cHv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --7JfCtLOvnd9MIVvH-- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
