SCSI Errors

[reinstalled]

Hi Getting the messages below on my console. Looks like the scsi controller? Not sure but before I pull the trigger and have my client replace their server (V250) wanted to get your take.

Thanks,

I'm not familiar with the V250... are there any SCSI cables you can try swapping here or are the disks plugged into some kind of backplane?

How many disks are involved? It could just be the one at target 3 that is at fault. If you can boot without it, try that...

If I remember correctly, the Sun Fire V250 can hold up to 8 internal hard drive. I have seen this error several times. I have always replaced the hard drive (in this case c0t3) to correct this problem.
