RE: [dm-devel] i/o error due to all path failure with rdac

Looks like eventually we get rport failure after the controller offline.


I have attached the messages file.  I am running raw IO.

Also, please note that I have added following lines in check_sense. This condition (quiescence) should be retried.


case UNIT_ATTENTION:
                if ((sense_hdr->asc == 0x29 && sense_hdr->ascq == 0x00) ||
                    (sense_hdr->asc == 0x8b && sense_hdr->ascq == 0x02))
                        /*
                         * Power On, Reset, or Bus Device Reset, just retry.
                         */
                        return ADD_TO_MLQUEUE;



Thanks

Ok. Now it is clear. I thought the port was disabled.

The rport failure in the log you sent made me think that it was a port
disable. Why was there a rport failure ?

Can you add these two lines at the top of
scsi_dn_rdac.c:rdac_check_sense() function, retest and send me the log.
------------
        sdev_printk(KERN_ERR, sdev, "sense_key:%x; asc %c; ascq %x\n",
                sense_hdr->sense_key, sense_hdr->asc, sense_hdr->ascq);
-----------
I want to see if we are getting any special sense that we are not
handling.
