WARNING: /pci@4,4000/scsi@4/sd@5,0 (sd95):

[COTLG]

Hi,

These are the some contents of /var/adm messages file for an Enterprise 450 I am setting up. I have got it on the network with a new nodename and IP address but these errors keep on coming up at boot time. Are there some scsi devices not connected or what?

Urgent help needed.

edit /etc/system, add a # in the lines containing md_trans, md_raid failed and md_hotspares
remember what you did when setting up a RAID5, a Transdevice or a hotsparepool! ;-)

and one of your disks is almost dead -> replace it...

I did a metastat and everything seems okay. Is there any other way I can identify the faulty disk or slice?

Thanks

On issuing the format command, I got this output for one of the disks:

c6t5d0 <drive type unknown>
pci@4,4000/scsi@4/sd@5,0

Any way to resolve this?

Thanks

prtconf -vp | grep disk
