I believe this issue is a result of the aacraid_commit_reset patch (as posted for scsi-misc-2.6, enclosed to permit testing) not yet propagated to the 2.6.22-rc3 tree. This is the adapter taking longer than 3 minutes to start after a reset. I seriously doubt either of these patches suggested below will have an affect. And if they do, they are not root cause, one reduces the chances that the card will be reset during initialization (thus applied would likely mitigate this problem), the other prevents a panic when the Adapter is reset (removed, would result in dogs and cats sleeping with each other). Please use kernel parameter aacraid.startup_timeout=540 (merely larger than the default 180 seconds) when spawning the kexec or see if the aacraid_commit_reset.patch resolves the issue to confirm my hunch.
aacraid_commit_reset.patch is in the mainline already. YH - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
