|
| From: Matt Bondurant <Matthew.dav.bondurant@hp.com>
|
| In shared SAS configurations we might get a busy status during driver
| initiated commands (e.g. during rescan for devices). We should retry the
| command in such cases rather than giving up.

This may or may not apply to your situation. Some targets/disks return TASK SET FULL when they can't accept any new SCSI commands. If that applies to your situation, it may make sense to also check for SCSI status of SAM_STAT_TASK_SET_FULL.
