Hi all,
So, a couple of months ago, I posted about a backup job for a 600 gig
information store taking 80 hours using BE over a gigabit ethernet to a
tape library. I still have issues.
It looks like when the mail server (exchange 2003 on dl360 with msa30
attached via scsi) is booted it logs a warning "SCSI bus fault occurred
on Storage Box box 0, , Port 0 of Array Controller in slot 2.
This may result in a "downshift" in transfer rate for one or more hard
drives on the bus."
The array controller in slot 2 is a 6400. All the drives are ultra320 10k.
It then logs a couple of errors that state "The device,
\Device\Scsi\cpqcissm2, did not respond within the timeout period."
Couple of things I have noticed: The MSA does not have a terminator on
the B scsi connection. Anyone know if these are self terminating and I
don't need one?
Also, it looks like the EMU for the array was never connected to a
switch. I thought I'd connect it and see what information it would give
me. The EMU is seated, but doesn't seem active at all. no light and no
activity when i attach it to a switch. seems dead. If this EMU failed,
could that cause the array to downshift?
Any other ideas for what I should be looking for to troubleshoot this?
Thanks.
Bill
