    I did get an answer for this for all who might be curious,
    SCSI Bus Errors, this one error 10 are often seen after adding new
    harddrives and creatign volume groups, especially since the controllers
    that I am using a fast/wide controller that is hitting its bandwith
    limit quite hard. The sense data essentially meant drive is busy, will
    talk later..to HBA.
