Hello guys!

Currently my scsi disc is only reporting errors! In the adaptect scsi bios I tried the verify media option and it worked fine. The output from the Linux kernel is more than worse!

Can you tell me what's wrong in my system ?

I will monitor the mailing list the next hours, if the hard disk allows that.

Please help me, this is the second scsi disc
reporting such failures!

Regards,

Nico

Hello guys!

Currently my scsi disc is only reporting errors! In the adaptect scsi bios I tried the verify media option and it worked fine. The output from the Linux kernel is more than worse!

Can you tell me what's wrong in my system ?

I will monitor the mailing list the next hours, if the hard disk allows that.

Please help me, this is the second scsi disc
reporting such failures!

Regards,

Nico

You are seeing lots of parity errors (ASC=47 ASCQ=0). I would suggest checking cabling and terminator.

There is in fact no terminator, the scsi disc should terminate the bus itself. It is directly connected to the onboard aix7880 scsi controller. I will use another cable in about half an hour (when my friend arrives..)

Thanks for the hint!

Hmm...what to do against this ?
the 'disable parity' jumper is not set, should I set it ?

Or was this something to adjust in the boot up adaptec menu ?

Whatever, thanks a lot to here !

I would suggest checking "Term Enable" jumper on the disk just to be sure. This jumper needs to be on for most (I would think all) drives to terminate the bus.

Hi all!

The problem is solved, if I disconnect the hp streamer from the bus. I wonder why there is a problem. The aic7880 has two busses:

ultra/ ultrawide.

The ibm hard disk is connected to the uw port and is terminated. No other uw device is attached.

The hp streamer is also lonely on the ultra bus. I have no documentation for that device, so I don't know whether it is terminated nor if it is using parity.

Btw, can somebody explain what the parity bit does to me ?

Or does anybody have a hp c1536 streamer and can help me ?

Regards,

Nico

The manual for my C1536A says:

| The C1536A does not support termination on the device itself. Normally, the
| unit will not be placed at the end of a bus. However, if this is
| unavoidable, we recommend the use of an additional length of cable with a
| terminator attached. (Lack of space does not allow for a feed-through
| connector to be used to the drive.)

| Terminator: Methode Active SCSI Terminator DM1050-02-R
| Methode Passive SCSI Terminator DM1050-02-0

So you should get a terminator (or an addtional SCSI device that does have a termination dipswitch/jumper, like my CD-ROM drive :-)

This also explains why it works without the C1536: in that case your SCSI host adapter will auto-terminate the empty narrow chain.

Thank you Geert!

That was the informations I needed all the time!
So I ordered an active terminator yesterday.

Btw, can somebody explain what the parity bit does to me ?

Or does anybody have a hp c1536 streamer and can help me ?

Based upon the lspci output you posted earlier, aic7880 has a single SCSI bus. So you must mean two internal connectors. Both of your devices (HD and Tape) do show up on the same bus during scan. Since you have connected devices to both connectors on the card, you must terminate both devices. Sounds like you HD might be terminated. You need to terminate tape drive as well. I do not have a C1536 handy, but if you look at the back of the drive you should see 10 pins aligned horizontally. They should all be labelled on the back panel and most likely are (from left to right) - TP, 2, 1, 0, NC. TP is the pair of Term Power Enable pins. Place a jumper over the leftmost two pins to enable termination on the drive and try again.

Hi all!

The problem is solved, if I disconnect the hp streamer from the bus. I wonder why there is a problem. The aic7880 has two busses:

ultra/ ultrawide.

The ibm hard disk is connected to the uw port and is terminated. No other uw device is attached.

The hp streamer is also lonely on the ultra bus. I have no documentation for that device, so I don't know whether it is terminated nor if it is using parity.

Oh. That could really be a problem.. I though having two different connectors on the board would make two different buses.. I must have been wrong.

Okay, so far I understood.

It is.

You need to terminate tape drive as well.

It seems like it is impossible:

the problem is I do have :)

No. And that's the real problem.
I can see the following:

2 - 1 -0 for the id (every one with two pins), NC (one pin). Under the device is a small claviar.
I mean a small think, a bank with small switches on it.

reading from left to right:
1 - 2 -3 - 4 -5 -6 -7 -8.
If the switch is up, it is on.

| o  |   on
|     |

|      |   off.

I hope you understand what I mean to say with thoses ascii figures.

Does anybody know what to do with these
switches ?

Nico

ps: oh, you are from hp, that's the reason why you know so much about this device ;)

And, AFAIK, the controller stands in the bus between the disk and the tape, so you should terminate both AND disable the controller internal terminator or leave it in AUTO mode.

yes.

no. you should terminate high-on low-off. how can the 50 pin end terminate the extra wires of the 68 conductor wide side?

Quoted 1 line

or leave it in AUTO mode.

this might well work. if not, set host adapter/controller to terminate high-on low-off.
