12/04/09 0:40:55: ILLEGAL REQ: pRdm(a07e8a00) Cmd=3, Sns=a07e8a40 DevId[5] Tgt 5 12/04/09 0:40:55: info: 0, aslen= a, cmdSpecific[3]= 0 [2]= 0 [1]= 0 [0]= 0 12/04/09 0:40:55: asc=24, Ascq 0, Sks:c8, fp[0]= 0, fp[1]= 3 12/04/09 0:40:55: EVT#16440-12/04/09 0:40:55: 113=Unexpected sense: PD 05(e1/s5), CDB: 12 01 dc 01 1d 00, Sense: 70 00 05 00 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 00 24 00 01 c8 00 03 I don't know what this is and Google yields nothing really...
