Hello, I've seen errors like this before on our 3494 - with 3590's. Most of the errors are "soft errors" that are reported to AIX by the firmware.
To get a better idea of what is really happening try this command. errpt -a ... This may give you a little more diagnostic info. The errors I really get concerned about are "PERM" errors. These are permanent and need a closer look to see if it serious or not. Regards Stephen.
