6610.0. "SCSI bus reset (reason 0x6)... ?" by LEMAN::MARTIN_A (Be vigilant...) Tue Apr 22 1997 08:27
Hello ,
We are having a few SCSI bus resets at a customer site these
last couple of days.
Customer wants to know the reason, as theses errors trigger
off alarms on their system... waking up the operators 8-)
I could not explain these, can someone find any clue...
2 differents busses seem to show the problem SCSI #1 and
SCSI # 2 !!!
No device errors are reported, the 2 buses connect to HSZ50s...
What can be reason 0x6 for generating a SCSI bus reset ???
****************************************************************
Bus reset request from adapter detected
(reason = 0x6)
****************************************************************
Here are the system config and the dia outputs, hope it'll show
any evidence I'm not able to interpret myself...
Cheers,
=============================

Me'z thinks your Customer needs to add some filters to their auto notification
system.
What you post are normal bus resets done as part of a normal system boot
sequence to get everybody walking in a straight line.
Even once booted a rouge reset here or there is not something to be overly
concerned about. You need to key in on WHY you got the reset in that case (bus
hangs, command timeouts, command transmission failures, etc...)

| 6610.2 | reason 0x6 = Unable_to_arbitrate, but WHY ? | LEMAN::MARTIN_A | Be vigilant... | Tue Apr 22 1997 09:45 | 22 |
| I discovered in note #6066 that reason 0x6 means the following:
Unable_to_arbitrate
6 This code shall be used with a Reset Request
message when the adapter is not participating
in any SCSI bus traffic, has I/O requests,
and has not seen an opportunity to arbitrate
for the bus for a significant period time.
The method in which the adapter determines
that it has been waiting too long arbitrate
for the bus is implementation specific, and
is not required to work when commands specify
an infinite timeout period (FFFFh).
The KZPSAs are connected to HSZ50s (FW v50Z), is there any reason
the controllers could not arbitrate the SCSI bus for so long ?
Cheers,
