Thanks to Alan Rollow, Gyula Szokoly,Tom Webster and Dejan Muhamedagic

who all pointed out, that my disk 0 was failing. As Alan pointed out,
this panics the system on earlier versions of ADVFS (I assume Digital
Unix 3.2d has an early version... time to upgrade).
I already tried Dejans tip to do a format with scu and found out, that
the disk has unrecoverable errors (cannot read bad block list).
I replaced the disk and everything works fine again.

My question was:

>
> Hi,
>
> yesterday crashed our central mailhub. I got a bunch of syslog messages
> on my syslogmachine (more than 6500 lines, some examples below)
> It seems to be a SCSI problem. After rebooting everythings works again,
> scu verify shows no errors on my 3 disks (ID 0 1 adn 6).
> Any help in analyzing this errors is welcome.
