I'm trying to connect a raidarray on my host and doesn't have much sucess.
The array is arranged by the dealer with a Sun/Solaris.

I'm interessted in contact with anyone who have experience with arrays
from Nexan/Chaparal. We will recieve a FC-array as well soon (I hope).

Here is some information:

Consolemode:

P00>>>show dev
dka0.0.0.7.1 DKA0 COMPAQ BB00913466 3B07
dka100.1.0.7.1 DKA100 SEAGATE ST118273W 5764
dka200.2.0.7.1 DKA200 SEAGATE ST118273W 6244
dka500.5.0.7.1 DKA500 CHAPTEC K5312 K2.0
dqa0.0.0.105.0 DQA0 CD-224E 9.5B
dva0.0.0.0.0 DVA0
jka507.5.0.7.1 JKA507 CHAPTEC K5312 K2.0
eia0.0.0.9.1 EIA0 00-50-8B-AD-D5-CC
pga0.0.0.7.0 PGA0 WWN 2000-0000-c923-9b1d
pka0.7.0.7.1 PKA0 SCSI Bus ID 7
pkb0.7.0.6.0 PKB0 SCSI Bus ID 7
pkc0.7.0.106.0 PKC0 SCSI Bus ID 7

Apart from the jka507.5.0.7.1 everything looks normal.

Booting to single-user og mounting all local disks with bcheckrc:
with the array connected:

>>>b -fl s
# bcheckrc
...
# /sbin/advfs/verify OpenSystems

SEAGATE ST118273W 5764
Active CCB at time of error

AdvFS I/O error:
    Volume: /dev/disk/dsk1c
    Tag: 0xfffffff7.0000
    Page: 126
    Block: 14229136
    Block count: 16
    Type of operation: Read
    Error: 5
    EEI: 0x6400
    I/O error appears to be due to a hardware problem.
    Check the binary error log for details.
advfs_logger: pg #125 is bad; truncating log

This error is also hanging the machine when booting directly into
multiusermode.

If I unconnect the array the domain of two ST118273W's is happilly
mounted.
