SolutionThis is a known problem with the SCSI Ultra320 driver once the system has been up for 400+ days or so.
See this thread:
The latest ultra320 driver can downloaded from:

Re: continous error message in syslog
Hi Patrick,
Thanks a lot for the information.
From the cstm i came to know in my server i have two MPT SCSI adapaters
25 0/1/2/0 MPT SCSI Adapter (HP_A717 Information Successful
27 0/1/2/1 MPT SCSI Adapter (HP_A717 Information Successful
And i got the below information for these two adapters.

Re: continous error message in syslog
Hi Laiju,
This issue we have seen on servers which all are up for more days [approx. above 400 days].
Your syslog size will increase very fastly due to this error as well !!!! be cautious!!!!
Permant FIx you have to apply the SCSI patch which Mr. Patric has suggested.
Workaround : Take a reboot of the machine, this will also address the issue.
Regards,
MC

Re: continous error message in syslog
You should also check
echo 0xE00000000054E4E0/a | adb -o /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
if the result is not
mpt_os_callback:
mpt_os_callback:mpt_os_callback:
Then it is not the right cause.
If the result is str_timeout, it is not that error.
Known problem which can cause the same:
VERITAS Incident Number: 1413790 /Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC 4.1
http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH67726
VERITAS Incident Number: 14139223 /Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC 5.1
http://sfdoccentral.symantec.com/sf/5.1SP1/hpux/html/sfrac_notes/ch01s09s01.htm
If the address do not match either with mpt_os_callback nor str_timeout,
If the address matches with str_timeout and you don'"t have VSF installed,
then you should contact hp support,
Anyway the workaround of rebooting every 400days works for all those known possible causes
