I have a problem with an ncr810 controller. The machine often hangs
while I take backup. 
The machine is a Dell Omniplex 590 (startup messages at the end).

Is this a known problem that is fixed in the latest SNAP release?
(Or maybe a problem with the HP DAT drive?)

What happends is:

I started the backup at 10:20. It usually take 30 min.
When these messages start showing up the scsi subsystem
usually is about to hang.

Here the backup (tar) failed with I/O error.
I try to run the backup again.

It imediately fails. I push the eject tape button. Nothing happends.
After maybe 30 sec, the following messages appear and the disk subsystem
is dead.

(Written down by hand)

This is the startup messages.
