Hi Does Hannes' patch has been lightly tested on my scenario, always use 2 seconds delay before retrying. The patch looks good to me, well running. But I'd wonder whether 'if (!pg->interval) ' is necessary condition for codes style? Thanks very much! the details: Jul 17 16:21:10 cvknode2058 kernel: [16190.492656] sd 1:0:0:0: alua: rtpg retry Jul 17 16:21:10 cvknode2058 kernel: [16190.492663] sd 1:0:0:0: [alua] Sense Key : Not Ready [current] Jul 17 16:21:10 cvknode2058 kernel: [16190.492665] sd 1:0:0:0: [alua] Add.
