JBUS machines (USIIIi) have this controlled by the PCI controller in a rather complicated mess.
Since I see these on my U60, which is rather stuffed with hardware ( 2x 450MHz/4MB CPUs, 2 SCA disks, 2 Creator3D, 2GB RAM, two PCI graphics boards, USB and a gigabit ethernet card ), should I take a few cards out and see if things improve? Is there any way to spuriously trigger this? Can it be masked? Since these resets always correlate with high load and IO activity it might just be the power supply.
