Hmm, that's interesting. This V480 went into service three years ago.
Only in the past few days has it been logging a few SCSI errors and
one fibre-channel loop condition. Otherwise, it's been quite stable.
I wonder if the CPU board would work itself loose, or something like
that. Is there a number for this FIN?
