i did that on all 4 luns
#dd if=/dev/cciss/c0d2 of=/dev/null bs=131072
796+1 records in
796+1 records out

#dd if=/dev/cciss/c0d0 of=/dev/null bs=131072
796+1 records in
796+1 records out

# dd if=/dev/cciss/c0d1 of=/dev/null bs=131072
68675509+1 records in
68675509+1 records out

## dd if=/dev/cciss/c0d3 of=/dev/null bs=131072
68675509+1 records in
68675509+1 records out

I also had a serial cable attached to my P800 controller to capture any traces..this is what that picked up:

Uh, you should try the other way around to avoid breaking the
filesystem :

dd if=/dev/cciss/c0d2 of=/dev/null bs=131072

If no error occurs it should be OK.
