My apologies for posting this digression from the usual weighty
matters that are discussed here on -hackers, but I'm really in
a tizzy about this.
Going through my waiting mail this morning (on my personal desktop
system named `segfault.monkeys.com') I found the following message
from the nightly Security Check run. (This system is running stock
3.3 from a CD.)
I'm really quite worried about this, and I want to know what it all
means. `da0' is my primary SCSI drive and holds a LOT of stuff that
is near and dear to me (including a lot of stuff which I DO NOT HAVE
BACKED UP) along with all of the OS files.
The controller is an AHA-2940U (not wide). The da0 disk is a Quantum
Viking 4.5GB SCSI. I have never had any problem with this drive before,
even though I used it on Linux for several months.
This (FreeBSD) system has been running just fine, with no problems, for
several weeks. And now this!
I looked at the log files in /var/log and found out that these SCSI
errors mostly seem to have occured at around 2:00 local time last night...
when I was in bed and asleep. This morning, the system still _seems_
to be running just fine, but I'm worried...
I just want to know, on a scale from 1 to 10, what level of panic should
I now be experiencing relative to the kernel SCSI errors shown below?
Should I be furiously backing everything up to tape as we speak?
