Hello,

we are using a 45 Gb (5 ssa disks) raw logical volume in our disk-
storagepool. Last week we put caching off, because we run into
the exceeded filesize error on our Informix backup.

We had a write error in the actlog on this disk, which set the
volume read-only. The result was a lot of backups not succeeding in 
time. 

We looked at the aix-errorreport and did not see any error at all.
Just to be safe we replaced all 5 ssa disks.

Last night we had the same.

Does this sound familiar to anybody ?
Maybe put caching back on (IBM strongly advises us not to do so !??)

AIX 4.3.2, ADSM server 3.1.1.5



Here´s the part of the actlog referring to it:
