Description of problem: Sporadically get following error message: sym53c895-0:1: ERROR (81:0) (8-0-0) (f/9f) @ (script 2a0:48000000). sym53c895-0: script cmd = f25c0004 sym53c895-0: regdump: da 00 00 9f 47 0f 01 0a 00 08 81 00 80 00 0f 02 00 a8 83 1f 02 ff ff ff. sym53c895-0: Downloading SCSI SCRIPTS. I'm using both software RAID and LVM -- the LVM is built on top of a RAID-1 drive pair. I've only noticed this problem when accessing an LVM partition: /home and /usr/local are logical volumes on /dev/md5, /boot is ext3 on /dev/md0. Running fsck -c will throw the error about 1 time in 3 on one of the lv's, but has yet to do so on a non-lvm partition. I suspect this is NOT a hardware problem, as I had just scanned both drives for bad blocks prior to repartitioning and installing FC1. This system (an HP LPr PII/450 512M 2x9.1G SCSI) was previously running RH 7.3 with a straight ext3 partitioning scheme -- no RAID or LVM -- without exhibiting this problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Random / sporadic Steps to Reproduce: 1. umount /home ; fsck -c /dev/Volume00/lv_home Actual results: Sometimes it throws the error message, sometimes it doesn't. Expected results: No errors Additional info: I've done everything I can think of to rule out hardware errors.
Re-installed FC1 on the affected box on 3/13/04 using LVM but without software RAID. Problem seems to have gone away. This leads me to believe that the problem was caused by the software RAID.
