FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE, here's what dmesg writes: isp0: port 0x5000-0x50ff mem 0xfdff0000-0xfdff3fff irq 19 at device 0.0 on pci19 isp0: set PCI latency to 64 isp0: Board Type 2422, Chip Revision 0x3, loaded F/W Revision 5.4.0 isp0: 4096 max I/O command limit set isp0: Chan 0 0x5001438003bddccd/0x5001438003bddccc Role Initiator isp0: Starting Initial Loop Down Timer @ 1 isp1: port 0x5400-0x54ff mem 0xfdfe0000-0xfdfe3fff irq 16 at device 0.1 on pci19 isp1: set PCI latency to 64 isp1: Board Type 2422, Chip Revision 0x3, loaded F/W Revision 5.4.0 isp1: 4096 max I/O command limit set isp1: Chan 0 0x5001438003bddccf/0x5001438003bddcce Role Initiator isp1: Starting Initial Loop Down Timer @ 1 As for the firmware, the only thing I'm doing is having this: ispfw_load="YES" in my loader.conf. If you need more information, you need to tell me how to obtain it. > 2. What is the connection topology? Clearly there's a switch involved. > What switch vendor? Brocade. The topology is redundant: there are 2 of everything: the SAN storage has two controllers, each connected to its own Brocade switch, and the host isp device has two ports which are connected to one each of the switches. > 3.

I'm not that well versed in terminology, but from my interpretation of your question, here's what we have: there are 7 more identical servers which are connected identically to the whole setup. Not all of them are up all the time. The MSA storage allows us to "map" certain volumes to certain ports, which we do (not all of the servers can access all of the volumes). > 4. You say "spontaneous reboots". Some detail about this would be good. That's the problem - I don't have any. The only thing I have is that "something weird" happens with the isp device (as seen in the logs) and the machine reboots. See what happens at the timepoint Aug 20 15:03:23 in the log file I've linked to in my original message. Foremost, I'd like to know if you suspect this is a hardware error.
