dasd.8ca077 <bus ID of the DASD>: cqr <pointer to request> timeout error

Explanation

A channel queued request (cqr) failed because it timed out. One possible reason for this error is that a request did not complete within the timeout interval specified in the 'timeout' sysfs attribute of the DASD. The timeout function can be used; for example, by mirroring setups; to quickly process a request queue for a DASD that has become unavailable.

User response

Check the message log for previous related error messages. Verify that the storage server and the connection from host to storage server are operational. Ensure that the sysfs attribute 'timeout' of the DASD device has been is set to a value sufficiently large, such that regular latency does not lead to timeouts.
