Re: Message on dmesg

Shalom,

File annexed? Sounds like a local political statement in my part of the world.

the dmesg output shows the following:

Possible bad disk

dmesg -

wait a bit

dmesg

If you still see an lbolt message, you are going to be replacing a disk shortly.

The reason I give the commands above is becaue if you have done a hot disk swap, you can trigger an lbolt that is not serious. Generally lbolt messages coming from other than hot swap disks means something is amiss, usually a disk, though depending on your system, it could be scsi termination, cables or even a drive cage.

Hi Miguel,

The lbolt applies to cb02200, when you convert cb back to decimal you will see it applies to:
Character = 203
Driver = sctl

On one of my systems, running an imaging system, the cb/203 under /dev applies to an OSAR device. Do you have a similar type of device that may be using this particular driver.....? So it is possible you may not be looking for a disk, but rather a 'drive'.

Just something to check,
Rgrds,
Rita

Hi MC,

Device 203 is normally the tape changer device in a tape library. Tape drives are 205. You need to talk to your backup people or investigate just what's going on with the robot. Sometimes these are just transients - but better safe than sorry...

Rgds,
Jeff
