Yet another swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer problem

Hi,

Every once in a while my compaq proliant 800 with smart array 221
raid controller will totally lock up, I've replaced everything in the
system including drives, cables, and raid card.  I've read in the hand
book that this is caused by possibly one of the above but am beginning
to suspect that this is happening when ever large amounts of swap are
used.

Has anyone else run into this problem with this configuration or am
I just dealing with a lemon of a machine here?

The exact message I'm receiving:

swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: device #idad/0x2001, blkno 376,
size: 4096
