Hello,

On a Dell PowerEdge 1950 Debian 5.0 amd64 system (2.6.26-2-amd64), which 
includes one of these:

.. and a couple of WesternDigitial SATA drives,  I ran the following 
command:

while true ; do smartctl -a /dev/sg0 > /dev/null ; done

After approx 45 minutes this happened:

kernel: [5060492.926757] 
mptctldrivers/message/fusion/mptctl.c::mptctl_ioctl() @602 - Controller 
disabled.

... and all the attached block devices were no-longer available.  The 
machine also runs mpt-status.

Regards,

Tim.
