Can you isolate a time when the change happened for you? Part of the problem for me is I'm in the middle of untangling a bunch of NEW_TRAN_CODE changes, and my latest quick && dirty test on tape (remote from home, I'm recuperating from minor surgery today) had me try and interrupt a dump, and then issue a scsi bus reset, only to see: (noperiph:sym0:0:-1:-1): SCSI BUS reset delivered. (sa0:sym0:0:6:0): Retrying Command which for a tape write would be totally wrong. -matt On Thu, 12 Jul 2001, Jim Bryant wrote: > Okay, thanks.
