I'm having some sort of SCSI adapter problems. My server was blue screening
about once a month, now it is blue screening every couple days. I reboot and
everything is fine. This is running my backup system, I'm using Veritas
Netbackup 6.0. I'm running Win2003 Server SP1. When the machine is back up,
I'm able to run my backups and restore just fine, but at night every couple
days, it is blue screening. I'm seeing as system error: A parity error was
detected on \Device\Scsi\adpu160m2, also seeing an application error: TLD
(0)[3860] GetTapeParameters for drive 5 (device 17) returned: No media in
drive. It's losing it's connection with the scsi drive and that's crashing
is, it's a teribyte + sized hard drive, so it's not happening because of bad
tapes or anything like that. I think it's either the card, cable, maybe a
setting? It went from happening rarely, to fairly frequent. Any advice??
 
RE: adpu160m

The adapter is a Adaptec SCSI Card 39160 - Ultra160 SCSI.
