Hi, I am having a hell of a time with a new AIT3 drive we have. I have a
folder with 21GB of files, all around 12MB, that I want to write to
tape. I am running Debian 3.0 with the 2.4.18 kernel. The machine is
Dual Athlon 1500's on a Tyan TigerMP motherboard with 1.5GB of ram
(dmesg is below). The tape drive is a Sony SDX-700C connected with a
very high quality Granite Digital U320 certified SCSI cable and
terminator. It is the only device on the controller . The machine also
has a 3Ware IDE Raid controller with 8-80GB Maxtor drives in a raid 5 array.
It startes writing out fine then it dies after a random number of files.
The exact command I am using is....
pinky:/# tar -b 1024 -cvf /dev/nst0 /Rogue/Renders/CorePost/CO-202/ >
tape0001_CO-202.log
tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
tar: /dev/nst0: Wrote only 65536 of 524288 bytes
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
The tapes are 100GB tapes and I am only trying to write 21GB, so it's
not that.
pinky:/# du -hs /Rogue/Renders/CorePost/CO-202/
21G /ntfs/Rogue/Renders/CorePost/CO-202
In syslog I get....
Dec 13 12:05:24 pinky kernel: (scsi0:A:6:0): Unexpected busfree in
Data-out phase
Dec 13 12:05:24 pinky kernel: SEQADDR == 0x8a
Dec 13 12:05:24 pinky kernel: st0: Error 70000 (sugg. bt 0x0, driver bt
0x0, host bt 0x7).
Dec 13 12:05:24 pinky kernel: st0: Error 8 (sugg. bt 0x0, driver bt 0x0,
host bt 0x0).
Dec 13 12:05:24 pinky kernel: st0: Error 8 (sugg. bt 0x0, driver bt 0x0,
host bt 0x0).
Dec 13 12:05:24 pinky kernel: st0: Error on write filemark.
At one point I got a much nastier message, but it's pretty huge, so it's
at the bottom of the email.
I did some google'ing and I didn't find much (well, I did find lots of
posts with the 'Error on write filemark" but they all had a Medium Sense
error first.). I have tried all kinds of different block sizes for tar
(1024 is the highest I have tried), I have tried different SCSI
cards/cables/terminators. Pretty much everything I can think of.
After talking with Tier1 support at Sony a week ago, they thought hte
drive was dead, so they sent out anther one, which does the exact same
thing. I spent an hour on the phone with Tier 1 again today (he didn't
even know what tar was), I think I have finally been bumped up to Tier
2, but I am waiting to hear back from them.
Does anyone have any ideas? I really need to get this thing working ( I
have 3.5TB to archive, ideally before I leave next weekend).
thanks
