System: NetBSD net3.msu.montana.edu 2.0_BETA NetBSD 2.0_BETA (GENERIC) #2: Wed May 26 22:54:17 MDT 2004 mhitch@neverland.msu.montana.edu:/usr/home/mhitch/NetBSD-2-0/OBJ/vax/sys/arch/vax/compile.vax/GENERIC vax

>Description:
	The timeout value used for stop/start commands in /sbin/scsictl is 10
	seconds.  This is too short for some devices.  The timeout should be
	increased.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Connect an older drive (Seagate Barracuda for example:

	sd0 at scsibus0 target 0 lun 0: <SEAGATE, ST15150N, 9103> disk fixed

	Attempt to stop the drive:

	net3# time scsictl /dev/rsd0c stop
	sd0(asc0:0:0:0): asc0: timed out [ecb 0x80579000 (flags 0x101, dleft 0, stat 0)], <state 1, nexus 0x0, phase(l 10, c 100, p 7), resid 0, msg(q 0,o 0) >
	/dev/rsd0c: SCSI command timed out
	0.0u 0.0s 0:16.97 0.2% 0+0k 0+0io 1pf+0w
>Fix:
	Change the timeout for the start/stop commands to 20 or 30 seconds:
