I get these error messages intermittently in the SYSLOG about a problem with our IPI drive. When I reported this to the HOTLINE the last time they suggested putting in a new IPI drive which we did but obviously did not cure the problem. Can someone at SGI (Dave Olson?) comment on this.

It could be cabling (total cable length is under 50 feet, right?), but I would check the controller first.
