error on dmesg

[remer]

hi hope someone can help me.

how can i see the details of this alarm found on dmesg (syslog)?

what is the possible cause of this alarm?

"SCSI: Unexpected Disconnect -- lbolt: 47866821, dev: cb0df002, io_id: d0000b9"

thanks.

The lbolt value means very little; it's simply the number of clock ticks since boot. The device id is key:

The first two hex digits (cb) indicate the major device. 0xCB = 203 (dec). Do an lsdev and see what device corresponds to this value. (Probably a tape drive, possibly a robotics device but lsdev will identify it on your particular system).

The next two hex digits (0d) indicate the controller instance, c13.

The next hex digit (f) indevicate the SCSI ID (or target) t15. The next hex digit (0) indicates the LUN (d0). The last two hex digits (02) are device dependent. If 203 is a tape device major number then the
device with the problem is /dev/rmt/c13t15d0.

thanks
upon checking cb (first two hexa digit) is a 203 which upon checking using lsdev is a:

# lsdev |grep 203
203 -1 sctl ctl
#

using ioscan.
# ioscan -nfC ctl

so i can say the problem is a third party device?

thanks.

[remer]

btw, what does the lbolt number mean? and the io_id mean? do i need to convert it to decimal to get something on it?

thanks again...

[A. Clay Stephenson]

I would do this:

ls -l /dev/*/c13t15d0* and see what devices are displayed. sctl is the SCSI pass-thru driver and is very commonly used for robotic (e.g. tape library) devices.

[remer]

i can't find any devices.
do you that's was the reason of this alarm?
