Interesting, camcontrol reports the following, so does that indicate it may be possible to do this: camcontrol devlist at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (da0,pass0) at scbus0 target 16 lun 0 (pass1) The suspected failing disk will be back in the office next week so we'll have a look and see what smart reports and post it. Currently the machine is now stable but its had ram replaced and this disk pulled so its not clear which solved the problem but at least its seems to be stable once again which is what really counts :) Regards Steve ================================================ This e.mail is private and confidential between Multiplay (UK) Ltd. and the person or entity to whom it is addressed.
