We're running RHEL3 WS (kernel 2.4.21-27) on our DL-360 with an HP DVD+R/RW 8X SlimLine and we're putting data down onto DVD+R media using mkisofs (v 2.01a32) via growisofs (v 5.16).
Usually it works but occasionally the kernel throws up:
Jan 24 13:59:00 localhost kernel: scsi0 channel 0 : resetting for second half of retries.
Jan 24 13:59:00 localhost kernel: SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0.
Jan 24 13:59:02 localhost kernel: sr0: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: Test Unit Ready 00 00 00 00 00
Jan 24 13:59:02 localhost kernel: sr00:00: old sense key None
Jan 24 13:59:02 localhost kernel: Non-extended sense class 0 code 0x0
and the write fails. Try again a moment later and off it goes like nothing ever happened.
We're seeing this and...
scsi0 channel 0 : resetting for second half of retries.
SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0.
SCSI error: host 0 id 0 lun 0 return code = 18000002
Sense class 0, sense error 0, extended sense 0
happening in /var/log/messages pretty often whether the DVD+RW is being used or not.
We've made sure nowt else is mounting the DVD and swapped both the drive and the 44pin IDE cable to no avail.
Looks to me like a problem with the kernel communicating with this drive, possible the ide-scsi emulation.
Anyone else seen this? Got a work around or fix or know of a DVD+RW that doesn't exhibit this behaviour?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Jamie

SolutionIt is best to use equipment specifically supported and tested by HP. HP storageworks has a DVD RW+ that uses only R+ media. Its quite pricey, but it is certified.

Re: RHEL3 DVD+RW scsi error on DL360
I've been doing a lot of hardware testing with RHEL-4.0/Suse/Fedora Linux and IDE/USB CD-ROMS and have found that only Suse works consistantly. Mkisofs uses a different library in the two distros and the explanation I got from Redhat was that Suse were using a much newer library that accepted so-called unstable devices.
In my experience the opposite is true, and although I much prefer Redhat, Suse is a much better bet when it comes to supporting devices.
I have to say that I agree with SEP comment about sticking to supported hardware although I have found that even when doing this there can still be problems.

Steven - do you mean the HP DVD400i?

If not, then which?
