I just happened to upgrade to kernel 2.6.24 and the problem is gone. I just
have a few SError messages that appear to be harmless:
ata2: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x50000 action 0xa frozen
ata2: SError: { PHYRdyChg CommWake }
ata2: hard resetting link
ata2: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300)
ata2: EH complete
ata2: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x1d0000 action 0xa frozen
ata2: SError: { PHYRdyChg CommWake 10B8B Dispar }
ata2: hard resetting link
ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0x80)
ata2: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)
ata2.00: ATA-8: ST3500320AS, SD15, max UDMA/133
ata2.00: 976773168 sectors, multi 0: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32)
ata2.00: configured for UDMA/133
ata2: EH complete
and then the usual SCSI messages about the newly seen drive. The scsiadd -r
command works every time and does stop the disk indeed :
sd 1:0:0:0: [sdb] Synchronizing SCSI cache
sd 1:0:0:0: [sdb] Stopping disk
ata2.00: disabled
and then when I switch the drive off :
ata2: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x1990000 action 0xa frozen
ata2: SError: { PHYRdyChg 10B8B Dispar LinkSeq TrStaTrns }
ata2: hard resetting link
ata2: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300)
ata2: EH complete
So thanks for the help and sorry for the bother. =)
