Hello All, I have an ide tape drive. (AIX2) 35/90gb tape drive. When I run a backup job I get several i/o errors. Here is a cutout of my syslog:
Apr 5 23:00:02 fs1 kernel: st0: Block limits 32768 - 32768 bytes. Apr 5 23:00:02 fs1 kernel: st0: Error with sense data: Current st0: sense key Illegal Request Apr 5 23:00:02 fs1 kernel: Additional sense: Parameter not supported Apr 5 23:00:02 fs1 kernel: st0: Error with sense data: Current st0: sense key Illegal Request Apr 5 23:00:02 fs1 kernel: Additional sense: Invalid field in cdb Apr 5 23:00:18 fs1 kernel: st0: Error with sense data: Current st0: sense key Illegal Request Apr 5 23:00:18 fs1 kernel: Additional sense: Invalid field in cdb Apr 5 23:00:18 fs1 kernel: st0: Can't set default block size to 0 bytes and density ffffffff. Apr 5 23:00:19 fs1 kernel: st0: Error with sense data: Current st0: sense key Illegal Request Apr 5 23:00:19 fs1 kernel: Additional sense: Invalid field in cdb Apr 5 23:00:19 fs1 kernel: st0: Can't set default block size to 0 bytes and density ffffffff. I find that the dd command freezes up and I cannot even kill -9 the process. (most likely because it is a kernel processes). Does anyone know why this processess might be looking up. I have the feeling it has something to do with ide-scsi.
