Event ID 9 - Device...

[Alive Data]

All,

I am getting the following error on my HP NetServer LHS 2k server:
Event ID: 9
The Device, \Device\Scsi\mraid35x, did not respond within the timeout
period.

I am aware that you can get a similar error when a scsi chain is not
terminated and/or your firmware is out of date. However, bith seem to
be in good order. There are also no errors showing up on any of the
drives...

Any help would be great,

I did QA testing for HP on this driver. Bottom line: if there's
an extreme amount of activity on the bus, you'll get these errors
once in a while. We routinely saw them under our saturation
test, but very few end-users consistently stress their bus to that
extent. HP filed it as a "corner case" and never bothered fixing
it, AFAIK (this was as of 2 1/2 years ago).

Beyond that, it's possible one of your drives, cable or drive
connectors is flaky.

Also make sure you're using the latest mraid driver as well as
firmware.
