We are running a SPARCstation 2 with SunOS 4.1.1 Rev B. Our SCSI configuration is this: esp0 - Emulex SCSI controller sd0 - Internal Maxtor 207MB - SCSI ID 3 sd3 - External Sun 669MB - SCSI ID 0 st0 - External QIC-150 - SCSI ID 4 sr0 - External CD-ROM - SCSI ID 6 ss0 - External Scanner - SCSI ID 5 Occasionally the system will spit out error messages of a 'data transfer overrun' from the Maxtor 207MB: esp0: data transfer overrun State=DATA Last State=DATA_DONE Latched stat=0x10<XZERO> intr=0x10<BUS> fifo 0x60 last msg out: <unknown msg 0xff>; last msg in: COMMAND COMPLETE DMA csr=0x94400010<INTEN> addr=ff072000 last=ff070000 last_count=2000 Cmd dump for Target 3 Lun 0: cdb=[ 0xa 0x4 0xf9 0xe8 0x10 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 ] pkt_state 0xf<XFER,CMD,SEL,ARB> pkt_flags 0x0 pkt_statistics 0x2 cmd_flags=0x27 cmd_timeout 35 Mapped Dma Space: Base = 0xff070000 Count = 0x2000 Transfer History: Base = 0xff070000 Count = 0x2000 sd0: SCSI transport failed: reason 'data_ovr': retrying command esp0: Target 3 now Synchronous at 4.0 mb/s max transmit rate Does anyone have any ideas on why this is happening? -- Brien L.
