To translate this according to the SAS 1.1 specification, a
pathway open
failed because a timeout fired before the path could be established.
You can mitigate this by increasing the expander partial
pathway timeout
value. (or just move to a more efficient configuration).
I was telling Ric it was something else in seperate email. The pathway was blocked due to two initiors establishing a connection to single port. That woudl be the case if he wasn't using a sata multiplexor.
anyways, if the pathway timeout is the issue, then I believe you can set the pathway timeout value using Dougs smp tools, smp_phy_control , setting the --pptv command line option.

Thanks, I will give that a try,
