[OpenIndiana-discuss] scsi_vhci

Thu May 8 16:00:47 UTC 2014

That disk is one that has the reference temperature bug in the firmware.
There was a big thread about that recently.    Flashing an updated firmware
will likely bring it back to life.   Doing it on that system will likely be
difficult because the fault manager will get in the way.

I wrote a small blog entry about this:
http://www.bigdatajunkie.com/index.php/10-hardware/19-seagate-constellation-es-3-firmware-0003

You will want to check that all your disks get their firmware updated, this
bug can take down your whole pool.
