Guys,
Firstly, forgive me for using shitty Microsoft Outlook (not my fault),
and secondly, we've been using a Exabyte stacker with our SCSI DELL
machines. We have noticed that the /var/log/messages (we're uing RH 6.1
at work), grows very large (3.5MB at time of writing and still growing)
because of the aic7xxx.c doing domain validation stuff.
The messages are as follows:
Jan 20 11:28:19 lbr_copy kernel: (scsi1:0:3:0) Performing Domain
validation.
Jan 20 11:28:20 lbr_copy kernel: (scsi1:0:3:0) Successfully completed
Domain validation.
Jan 20 11:28:20 lbr_copy kernel: (scsi1:0:3:0) Performing Domain
validation.
Jan 20 11:28:20 lbr_copy kernel: (scsi1:0:3:0) Successfully completed
Domain validation.
Jan 20 11:28:20 lbr_copy kernel: (scsi1:0:3:0) Performing Domain
validation.

Domain validation.
Jan 20 11:28:20 lbr_copy kernel: (scsi1:0:3:0) Performing Domain
validation.
After looking through the aic7xxx.c file in linux/drivers/scsi, I've
produced a little patch:
