Little bit more detail :)

I've tried setting the drives to power up at different intervals, as well as
separating them so the LUN's are 0 2 4 6 instead of 0123.

I have also tried bypassing the UPS thinking it may be the culprit.

In answer to Mikes message
"Isn't there a link on scsi drives or an option to control
power up delay"

Yes - I have tried the delays - with no luck. I have an external drive case
with plenty of power which I plan to make use of soon.

My primary concern is getting the server back up as it was before I started.

Thanks
