SCSI: Request Timeout; Abort -- lbolt: 143561053, dev: e7050000, io_id: 505aeae
How do I determine if I need a patch or if it is a real hw problem to report to hp?

Hi,

Do a ioscan and see if you a device over there with NO_HW or some other problem.

Looks like the device having problem is at c5t0d0. If this is a disk drive, do a diskinfo and see if you are able to see the disk,

diskinfo -v /dev/rdsk/c5t0d0

You may have to look for a replacement disk.

Hope this helps.

If that's the only error you see (ie without other errors like ..)
- pv[#] returned to vg[#]
- vg[#]: pvnum=# (dev_t=##) is powerfailed
then it's most likely due to SCSI termination problem, SCSI connection, etc. Check your connection.

if in ioscan you don't have no_hw, it means that the lbolt timeout error means that the driver could not complete the
I/O in the specified amount of time. The default time is 30 seconds.

In add dev: e7050000 is the device minor number, in this way you can find the disk.

lbolt normally is indicative of a hardware problem..

But, I'm not sure about what device. The device info is what I use to determine what it is. Example: 1f050000 would be a disk (1f is hex for major number 31../dev/dsk) with an address of c5t0d0.

So e7 is hex for 231. Look on your system /dev and see if can associate that number to a device. I thought it might be an osar/juke slot, but that's a 230.

Just a thought,
Rita

printf "%d\n" 0xe7
will give you 231
lsdev -c 231 will give you what that device is.

On my system it is auto changer.

Check SCSI connections, SCSI patches.

Hope this helps.

Thanks all for your useful replies. 231 is the autochgr, thanks for the clue. I'll look for patches.
