Hi again-- I wasn't sure what you meant by ARRE or AWRE in this case either, and I couldn't find them in the vinum docs. I don't think the kernel panicked, or if it did, it couldn't write any logs. I think the controller just freaked out or something. The worst part is the lack of availability of the machine when this happens, anything you could provide that would help me fix this would be very helpful. --On Monday, March 06, 2000 18:45 +1100 Greg Lehey <grog@lemis.com> wrote: > On Sunday, 5 March 2000 at 21:30:55 -0500, David Aronchick wrote: >> Hi-- >> >> I've had the following problems... >> we're currently running with 3x18 GB 10k Segate drives and an Asus p2b-ds >> <http://www.asus.com/products/motherboard/pentiumpro/p2b-ds/spec.html>; >> with onboard scsi card.
