V440 SCSI issues as relates to LSI1030 controller
Hello all,
I am running into issues with the SCSI bus on a V440. I am running Solaris 10 on the server. I am trying to attache a StorageTek L20 tape library to the onboard Ultra 320 SVD SCSI port on the back of the V440. When I do a probe-scsi-all I get the following errors:
ERROR: LSI1030 timeout waiting for interrupt.
ERROR: LSI1030 Could not set initiator ID
Can't open SCSI adapter
ERROR: LSI1030 MPT Firmware, fault code 8112 PCI BUS Fault.
I have done the reset-all and issued the probe-scsi-all before boot, so that is not an issues. The LSI1030 firmware is the latest release.
Any ideas on how to attack this one?

You will need to install a compatible SCSI card, if you hope for it to work.
The onboard SCSI interface of the V440 is Low Voltage Differential (LVD).
http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/SunFireV440/spec.html#StandardInte rfaces
The tape library requires a High Voltage Differential (HVD) card, such as the 375-0006 (X6541A)

HVD SCSI doesn't work with LVD or S/E SCSI.

I have the same errors and I do not have any tape drives connected, only the 4 internal drives. This is showing 2 because I created a mirror drive of disk0, although I just tried also to boot off disk2 (not shown) and it failed.
Any help would be appreciated.

I followed a suggestion and did this
ok> setenv auto-boot? false
ok> reset-all
ok> probe-scsi-all
and the errors went away.
Afterwards when I switched it to
ok> setenv auto-boot? true
ok> reset-all
The system rebooted to disk0.
When I try to boot off the mirrored drive (disk2) it says "cannot open boot device". Is there more that has to be done?
I just tried to boot the other drives and I got the message "the file just loaded does not appear to be executable".I am wondering since the live boot drive has not failed, whether I have to break the mirror and mount disk 2 to be able to mount it.
Any thoughts?
