This host has it's isp device directly connected to a fiber channel 
array.  The array is not disappearing, or being rebooted, nor is there 
any other machine rebooting or resetting.   I see these same errors on 
another box that has 3 arrays connected to a qlogic switch.  I seem to 
only see these when the machine is heavily accessing the disks.
