Common event descriptions
Table 16 contains descriptions for common events.
Table 16: Common Event Descriptions
Event Description
DS_EVENT_PORT_STATUS
A general event not decoded to more detail. This does not
always indicate a problem but may be relevant in relation to
other events.
DS_EVENT_SCSI_ERROR A general event not decoded to more detail. This does not
always indicate a problem but may be relevant in relation to
other events.
DS_EVENT_INTERNAL_BUS_
RESET
The controller reset the SCSI bus as part of error recovery,
usually in response to a preceding event. It is normal to see a
series of DS_EVENT_UA, sk:06, asc:29, ascq:02
on each device on that port following a bus reset.
DS_EVENT_EXTERNAL_BUS_
RESET
The controller detected an external SCSI bus reset. The error
should only come from the “other controller.” There should be
a corresponding DS_EVENT_INTERNAL_BUS_RESET on
the “other controller.” It is normal to see DS_EVENT_UA,
sk:06, asc:29, ascq:02 on each device on that port
following a bus reset.
DS_EVENT_BUS_PARITY_ERR
OR
A parity error on the SCSI bus was detected. This may
indicate cabling, drive, or controller problems.
DS_EVENT_TARGET_STATUS A device returned an error status, not detailed by a more
specific event code.
DS_EVENT_SN_CHANGE Not currently used.
DS_EVENT_BDR Not currently used.
DS_EVENT_SEL_TO The indicated device failed to respond. Look for missing or
broken device, cabling problems, or failed controller.
DS_EVENT_BUS_TIMEOUT A device operating on the bus failed to complete its
transaction in the allotted time. This may indicate a device
error, cabling problems, or controller problem. This is a rare
incident and probably not of concern, because the operation
is retried.
DS_EVENT_RS_ERROR Not currently used.
DS_EVENT_COMMAND_STATUS A device returned an error status, not detailed by a more
specific event code.
DS_EVENT_BUSY A device reported that it was busy and not able to accept the
command at that time. The command is retried. This is a rare
incident and is probably not of concern.
