If the Emulex FC HBA card is placed on the same PCI Bus with any other PCI card which causes the Schizo chip to attempt a 64-bit PIO, a system panic would most likely result. The problem will not occur if the Emulex HBA card is installed alone on a PCI Bus. UltraSparc-III platforms utilizing the Schizo 2.1 or 2.2 ASIC may experience panics due to address parity errors on the PCI Bus. The problem has been seen on the Sun Fire 280R with the Emulex FC HBA card in combination with a PGX32 card installed on the same PCI Bus. This condition occurs when a card on the PCI Bus detects a 64-bit parity address error on the PCI Bus while another card on the same PCI Bus is performing a 64-bit PIO. The following error messages are displayed prior to a system panic:

WARNING: pcisch-0: PCI fault log start:
PCI SERR

pcisch-0: PCI secondary error (0):
