[comp.sys.dec] Fuji disk on DECstation 3100

hartzell@spike.colorado.edu (George Hartzell) (09/21/89)

I am trying to get a 3.5inch 180Meg Fujitsu M2614SA running on a
DECstation 3100.  I have built a kernel that recognizes the drive, but
am having trouble formatting it.  Here is the entry I am using for it
in /usr/sys/data/scsi_data.c (the real entry is all one line)

	{"FUJITSU M2614S", 14, DEV_LTL_FUJI,SZ_DISK,sz_ltl_fuji_sizes, 
	SCSI_TRYSYNC|SCSI_STARTUNIT|SCSI_REQSNS|SCSI_READCAPACITY, 1000000 },

Here is what happens when I try to use rzdisk to format the drive.

	ROOT>>rzdisk -f vendor /dev/rrz1c
	
	FORMATTING A DISK DESTROYS ALL DATA!!!
	
	ARE YOU SURE (y/n)? y
	
	YOU ARE	FORMATTING THE DEVICE (/dev/rrz1c)!!!
	
	IS THIS CORRECT (y/n)? y
	
	Formatting device (/dev/rrz1c).

	*** ERROR OCCURRED DURING COMMAND (Format Unit) ***
	
	(/dev/rrz1c) error: sense key (0x5): illegal request.
	(/dev/rrz1c) error: error code (0x26): invalid field in param list.
	(/dev/rrz1c) error: sense = 70 0 5 0 0 0 0 28 0 0 0 0 26 0 0 0 0 0

I have tried combinations of the following drive configurations:
	SCSI bus parity - Execute and Not Execute
	Permission synchronous mode - Execute and Not Execute

Has anyone seen this behavior?  Does anyone know what it means?
