I will give my system a try next time when i have access to the
machine.
Although i cannot believe that: all disks are mounted in a plug-in
for the backplane (SCA HSBP M15), and the first disk works fine
all the times.
Maybe i change the drives in the plug-ins and the position of the
drives (but i cannot use all positions because i have to place the
IBM disk at the first position).
