    It sounds like a bug in the driver for the raid controller, or the
    firmware for the raid controller.

Well do you think I should get a different SCSI/RAID controller in that case? Or is there anyway I can help you find a bug in the RAID controller code. Those cache_lock messages and ssh shell freezing upon entering a directory are the only information i have for you at the moment. The biggest problem is that for some reason these problems make many emails stuck in either active or incoming queue. The only way to deliver them is to stop/start postfix and then observe some of them get delivered, then repeat this a few times for the rest to get delivered.

Now, should this be a drive problem, is there some software that will find out if theres something wrong with the discs?

Thanks a lot for your time,
Petr
