Thanks very much.

We had this error on two Dell 2950's recently. The error was observed roughly 
12 hours apart. Both are mail servers running OpenBSD 4.2 and had been up for 
close to 60 days when we saw the error (sd0 not queued error 5). Also, while 
the error was happening we were getting a lot of NDR's because one user had 
set up forwarding to the wrong address before taking off on his vacation. I 
don't know whether that contributed to this error in some way. 

Going through all the messages over the past two years on this topic, to me it 
looks like the problem occurs only on heavily loaded servers that have been 
up for a few months or on systems that have a lot of writes and the disks are 
mirrored. Is this a valid observation? Hopefully I am not jumping to 
conclusions here. 

Here is the dmesg after we did a power reset. We have not seen any problems 
for the past 15 days. 

Since we have not had any other problems, we were going to leave it running 
for a month or so, update the firmware on the backup server and see if the 
problem reappears. I will update the list if we have the problem again.

If there is any additional information that would be useful or if there is 
anything else I can do on the backup server, please let me know.
