These are normal messages that are usually supressed by ONTAP. Its the software querying the FCAL & SCSI loops for devices at bootup.

6.1.1 did not supress these messages as all previous versions have, and all later versions will. The messages are harmless and "normal" although you usually will not see them.

Please see http://now.netapp.com/Knowledgebase/solutionarea.asp?id=ntapcs2266&resou... for additional background information.

I have 4 filers running DOT 6.1R1 and they all say this on boot-up. I want to say it has something to do with putting anything in NVRAM to disk and possibly to perform check for any disk problems. I've accepted it as a normal part of the boot process.

UNIX is very user friendly... it's just highly selective about who it makes friends WITH!

After upgrade to DOT 6.1R1 I've got a warning that I don't understand. After every reboot filer displays:
