SOLUTION (not)
The overwhelming response was to check the cables, which is step 1
of any SCSI problem! [Step 2 is termination.]
No one knows what a "kluster error" is.
Unfortunately, these problems are occuring on one of our production
systems, so I can't just go in and muck around. I'm going to cross
my fingers and hope we can last until our next scheduled maintenance
(yes, we're 7x24 here...).
