That is what I suspect. Any suggestion for the diagnostic tool?

But I'm not exactly sure which disk is failing. I have 3 SCSI disk 
(sda,sdb,sdc). sda has 4 partition (1,2,3<swap>,5), sdb and sdc has only 1 
partition each. 
The complete message in /var/log/messages says:
 SCSI disk error : host 0 channel 0 id 2 lun 0 return code = 8000002

So I google for a while and read about SCSI addressing in  
http://www.linux.com/howtos/SCSI-2.4-HOWTO/scsiaddr.shtml but I still don't 
get it. Which one of the disks is failing? 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
