Started out with 2.2.5 and an adaptec 2940 and two (unterminated) Seagate drives and everything was fine. Added a 3940, a Quantum drive, installed 2.2-19980629-RELEASE and cam drivers on 6/29. The message below appeared. The quantum was terminated, the seagates were not, so I terminated the seagates (at this point all three drives were terminated via a termination block that was on an adapter that the hotswappable drives plugged into). The ugly message came back, but not as quickly. After some juggling, I discovered that the seagates were not happy being terminated with the termination block on the hot swap adapters. I got some active terminators and terminated a single seagate with it. Then the problem would alway appear on places other than that drive so I thought it was fixed. As a final test, I ran bonnie on with the two seagates only in the machine, each on a separate channel, and each terminated with an active terminator. The ugly message returned. Been struggling with it since 6/29 and about to scrap the idea. This was to be a squid box (performs really well until filesystems freeze) and this project is at the do or die phase. My client is going back into the loop of proprietary hardware/software if I can't make it fly. If I can make it fly, they want to build several large scale systems. Any ideas are welcome. Reinstalling from scratch is an option.
