Hi,
i attached a SCSI RAID system to my debian box. The HBA is a Adaptec 29160.
dmesg shows that the RAID is attached with asynchronous negotiation:
Code:
scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 7.0
<Adaptec 29160 Ultra160 SCSI adapter>
aic7892: Ultra160 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs
Vendor: SB-2800T Model: Rev: 0001
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03
scsi0:A:0:0: Tagged Queuing enabled. Depth 8
target0:0:0: Beginning Domain Validation
target0:0:0: wide asynchronous
target0:0:0: FAST-80 WIDE SCSI 160.0 MB/s DT (12.5 ns, offset 31)
target0:0:0: Domain Validation skipping write tests
target0:0:0: Ending Domain Validation
The RAID should support synchronous negotiation. Cables and termination are set up correctly.
Is there a way to force the HBA to use synchronous neg.?
