SCSI: Reset detected -- dmesg & stm notification

We just received an error that a SCSI Reset was detected.
From syslog...
First
Oct 6 19:01:22 server1 vmunix:
Oct 6 19:01:22 server1 vmunix: SCSI: Reset detected -- path: 0/10/0/0
Oct 6 19:01:22 server1 vmunix: SCSI: Reset detected -- path: 0/10/0/1
Oct 6 19:01:22 server1 vmunix: SCSI: -- lbolt: 654310921, bus: 4
Oct 6 19:01:22 server1 vmunix: lbp->state: 30008
Oct 6 19:01:22 server1 vmunix: lbp->offset: ffffffff

Then:
Oct 6 19:03:55 server1 vmunix: SCSI: Reset detected -- path: 0/12/0/0
Oct 6 19:03:55 server1 vmunix: SCSI: Reset detected -- path: 0/12/0/1

I have checked the disks with ioscan, and in cstm if I map, I do not get any warnings.

What caused this, and how do I completely check this out?

As well, how do I clear out the I/O Errors in the cstm > logutil

I am going to assume that the (503) errors are from a previous issue we had that we did not clear up. I am hoping, since it makes no mention to that path in dmesg or syslog.
How do I reset?

Re: SCSI: Reset detected -- dmesg & stm notification

Once lbolt is detected it can only be reset by restarting the system.

If the lbolt was triggered by pulling and replacing a hotswap drive, then you can ignore it until the next scheduled boot. It will show up in dmesg until boot.

If there is still a bad disk or scsi problem it will have to be corrected to clear the warning.

Re: SCSI: Reset detected -- dmesg & stm notification

There was nothing done to the system when this reset happened. How do I go about checking the drives

Re: SCSI: Reset detected -- dmesg & stm notification

if you do
ioscan -funH 0/0/2/0.0.0
what do you get>

under cstm
map
sel dev (number)
update
il

what do you get.
what devices are attached to that hardware path.

Good luck

Re: SCSI: Reset detected -- dmesg & stm notification

Are you sure nothing physical happened?

This happened to one of my servers the other day - when a new server was placed into the same rack - and someone accidentally bumped one of the SCSI cables...

My error:

Oct 4 07:31:17 pc2000 vmunix: SCSI: Resetting SCSI -- lbolt: 2043443378, bus: 11
Oct 4 07:31:17 pc2000 vmunix: SCSI: Reset detected -- lbolt: 2043443378, bus: 11



To completely check the disks - do a dd - mine was:

dd if=/dev/dsk/c11t3d0 of=/dev/null

The ioscan returned everything claimed.

I did notice that in map, I have an information killed, and when I try to update and il
I get infolog is currently disabled.
I should have 4 good cpu's
