ra - MSCP disk controller interface
ra* at mscpbus? drive?
The ra device provides access to MSCP disks such as: RC25,
RX50, RD51,
RD52, RD53, RA60, RA80, and RA81.
/dev/raup block mode MSCP disk unit u, partition p
/dev/rraup raw mode MSCP disk unit u, partition p
ra%d: don't have a partition table for %s; using
(s,t,c)=(%d,%d,%d) The
controller found a drive whose media identifier (e.g. `RA
25') does not
have a default partition table. A temporary partition table
containing
only an `a' partition has been created covering the entire
disk, which
has the indicated numbers of sectors per track (s), tracks
per cylinder
(t), and total cylinders (c). Give the pack a label with
the
disklabel(8) utility.
ra%d: drive will not come on line The drive will not come
on line, probably
because it is spun down. This should be preceded by a
message giving
details as to why the drive stayed off line.
uda%d: attempt to bring ra%d on line failed: `detail' The
drive could
not be brought on line. The detail message tells why.
uda%d: ra%d: unknown type %d The type index of the named
drive is not
known to the driver, so the drive will be ignored.
ra%d: changed types! was %d now %d A drive somehow changed
from one kind
to another, e.g., from an RA80 to an RA60. The numbers
printed are the
encoded media identifiers (see <vax/mscp.h> for the encoding). The driver
believes the new type.
ra%d: uda%d, unit %d, size = %d sectors The named drive is
on the indicated
controller as the given unit, and has that many sectors of userfile
area. This is printed during configuration.
ra%d: bad block report: %d The drive has reported the given
block as
bad. If there are multiple bad blocks, the drive will report only the
first; in this case this message will be followed by `+ others'. Get DEC
to forward the block with EVRLK.
ra%d: serious exception reported I have no idea what this
really means.
ra%d: bad lbn (%d)? The drive has reported an invalid command error,
probably due to an invalid block number. If the lbn value
is very much
greater than the size reported by the drive, this is the
problem. It is
probably due to an improperly configured partition table.
Other invalid
commands indicate a bug in the driver, or hardware trouble.
ra%d: duplicate ONLINE ignored The drive has come on-line
while already
on-line. This condition can probably be ignored (and has
been).
ra%d: io done, but no buffer? Hardware trouble, or a bug;
the drive has
finished an I/O request, but the response has an invalid
(zero) command
reference number.
ra%d: bogus REPLACE end The drive has reported finishing a
bad sector
replacement, but the driver never issues bad sector replacement commands.
The report is ignored. This is likely a hardware problem.
ra%d: unknown opcode 0x%x status 0x%x ignored The drive has
reported
something that the driver cannot understand. Perhaps DEC
has been inventive,
or perhaps your hardware is ill. This is followed by
a hex dump of
the offending packet.
ra%d%c: hard error %sing fsbn %d [of %d-%d] (ra%d bn %d cn
%d tn %d sn
%d). " An unrecoverable error occurred during transfer of
the specified
filesystem block number(s), which are logical block numbers
on the indicated
partition. If the transfer involved multiple blocks,
the block
range is printed as well. The parenthesized fields list the
actual disk
sector number relative to the beginning of the drive, as
well as the
cylinder, track and sector number of the block.
