I think there is no problem with scsi transport. I've checked hba-port
for errors and they are at reasonable level.

root@wros666x ~ # fcinfo hba-port -l
HBA Port WWN: 10000000c9755890
        OS Device Name: /dev/cfg/c1
        Manufacturer: Emulex
        Model: LPe11002
        Firmware Version: 2.72a2 (Z3F2.72A2)
        FCode/BIOS Version: none
        Type: N-port
        State: online
        Supported Speeds: 1Gb 2Gb 4Gb
        Current Speed: 4Gb
        Node WWN: 20000000c9755890
        Link Error Statistics:
                Link Failure Count: 0
                Loss of Sync Count: 4
                Loss of Signal Count: 1
                Primitive Seq Protocol Error Count: 0
                Invalid Tx Word Count: 12
                Invalid CRC Count: 0

 In my opinion problem is somewhere between  these two lines :) but i
have no idea where

24-Sep 06:45 wros666x-sd JobId 64: Despooling elapsed time = 00:40:02,
Transfer rate = 35.52 M bytes/second
24-Sep 10:11 wros666x-sd JobId 64: Sending spooled attrs to the
Director. Despooling 18,974,268 bytes ...
