Hi, I have just installed the Debain smartmontools package on a new Dell Poweredge server (more details in the attachments) and it seems that every time smartd or smartctl are run the kernel spits out 'kernel: scsi: unknown opcode 0x4d'. The machine seems to be stable so I presume these are just warnings. The kernel is Debian's 2.6.8-2-686 and I have attached various other things I thought might be useful but please let me know if you need more details. Thanks, Rupert |

Could anyone give me some help with this issue even if it is to refer me to the relevant documentation? I have searched for people with similar problems but they also seem not to have reached a solution.

This is a patch specific to the debian kernels. Does SMART work for you nevertheless? It should. You're attachments are all empty, btw. Cheers, -- Guido |

Rupert, I think this has been fixed in the upcoming release. Doug, is this fixed by the SG_IO changeover? Or am I missing the point?

Porblem in Debian's kernel package, doesn't happen with vanilla kernels (see http://bugs.debian.org/295807). Nothing to actually worry about. Cheers, -- Guido |

Some heavy decided this is an "unknown opcode" and all standard linux 2.6 series kernels output this warning the _first_ time they seem this opcode. The heavy still thinks it is a good idea it would seem. It is harmless and will be fixed it time. Please ignore it :-) Doug Gilbert |
