I posted this before but got NO responses. Can anyone help?
We have a VAX 8530 running Ultrix 2.0. Its ethernet board has
been spitting out 10 error messages per minute. They look like this:
----- EVENT INFORMATION SEGMENT -----
EVENT CLASS ERROR EVENT
OS EVENT TYPE 104. CONTROLLER ERROR

We had our ethernet board swapped, but the messages didn't go
away. Has anybody else experienced this? I had to shut off /etc/elcsd
because the error messages were overflowing our disk!!!
