This is almost always a termination issue. If the scsi bus isn't terminated, then there is nothing to pull the reset line high (which is the "good" state, if it isn't pulled high then that's what signals a reset). Is there actually anything on scsi0, or is it an unused channel? the scsi channel is currently unused, although some of these 40 units we're deploying will have the external disk packs. i'll do some more work on this today....and look at the termination issues If the channel is unused and you get infinite "Someone reset channel A" messages, then you are *guaranteed* to have a termination issue. Make sure that the motherboard side of that connector is properly terminated. If you have to, get an external terminator that can plug directly onto the scsi connector on the outside of the chassis. But, until the termination is fixed, this will be a problem. |
