Hi,
recently I start getting kernel messages (via demsg or syslog - kern.debug),
that seem to indicate problems with the disks on my 5000/200 with -current.
The messages are of the form:
/netbsd: rz0: No sense data
or
/netbsd: rz1: Illegal request
or
/netbsd: asc_timeout: cmd 0x8019c5d0 drive 0
or similiar on the second drive
/netbsd: asc_timeout: cmd 0x8019c8f0 drive 1
Sometimes a message like
/netbsd: swap_pager_clean: clean of page 6dc000 failed
follows.
I'm afraid the disks are going bad. My rz0 is a DEC RZ57 (rev 5000),
rz1 is a larger Quantum drive.
Any suggestions? Should I replace the drives?
BTW can I use any new SCSI disk or are there any limitations?
TIA,
Andreas
