Well, it would have been ideal if the Linux kernel had given up for this MEDIUM ERROR - INCOMPATIBLE MEDIUM INSTALLED ASC as well, instead of retrying on all available paths (since retrying would only end up hitting the same error again, given that this is a device error).
- Now I'm left with my broken NetApp, and I'd like to start using UNMAP on it... Any comments from netapp people reading this? There must be some reason why this is happening, and only on this specific lun, and not on the test lun, or on several of the other NetApp filer we use.
Yes, the NetApp controllers are returning this MEDIUM ERROR check condition for some reason. I'd suggest you open a NetApp support ticket for tracking this.
