| |
I have a Spectralogic dual AIT tape drive with robot tape changer arm that I am trying to use for departmental backup. The tape library is attached to a dual cpu Intel 450 MHz machine via a Adaptec 2944 FW-Differential controler. I am running linux 2.2.9 for the updated generic scsi driver, but the problem I am reporting happens with 2.2.3 and 2.0.36.
I often get scsi timeout errors. I have recently compiled turned on the DEBUG #define in drivers/scsi/st.c and I see the following:

Can anyone shed some light on what this error is, and how I may prevent it?
