Hello, I run an Adaptec 2940 UW controller under Linux 2.0.35 and the Adaptec AIC7xxx driver version: 5.0.19/3.2.4. The SCSI tape stuff is compiled as a module. I have several UW disks attached and a SCSI DLT tape drive which is also an UW device. The tapedrive can write 35 GB to a tape at a speed of more than 200 MB/sec. When I write to the tape I get the following messages Feb 7 23:51:11 hostname kernel: Detected scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 13, lun 0 Feb 7 23:54:42 hostname kernel: (scsi0:0:13:0) Data overrun detected in Data-Out phase, tag 29; Feb 7 23:54:42 hostname kernel: Have seen Data Phase. Length=65536, NumSGs=1. Feb 7 23:54:42 hostname kernel: sg[0] - Addr 0x400000 : Length 65536 Feb 7 23:54:42 hostname kernel: st0: Error 27070000. and tar responds to this with: Prepare volume #2 for /dev/nrmt0 and hit return: After I hit return (without changing the tape) it continues properly. What is this error message about ? On another box where I have almost the same configuration but the tape connected to a seperate controller I dont get this message and I can write non-stop to the tape. Any suggestions are welcome. :-) Harry =================================================================== PGP fingerprint: B9 EE 83 0C 1F 48 54 50 9F A7 7A 00 6C 94 36 02 PGP public key available by fingering [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
