Hello, this morning my centos 5 server (2.6.18-53.1.4.el5) failed on the dvd device and disabled dma. The dvd-writer (/dev/hdg) is connected to the following controller as a secondary master. 02:07.0 RAID bus controller: Silicon Image, Inc. PCI0680 Ultra ATA-133 Host Controller (rev 02) There is also an harddisc as primary master connected on this controller. This harddisc is the only device in the system that I put to sleep with 'hdparm -S180 /dev/hde'. The error messages are: Jan 24 04:54:21 weidenwinde kernel: hdg: cdrom_pc_intr: The drive appears confused (ireason = 0x01). Trying to recover by ending request.

Trying to recover by ending request. Could this error caused by the hdparm sleep command for /dev/hde? regards Olaf _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
