Hello. Yesterday I found out that my extra disk shut down. I don't know what steps to follow from now on. I'm searching online about the error as I found in the logs, and I don't know what steps to follow.
This is the log (I just trimmed which I think it was irrelevant): http://paste.debian.net/220272/ In particular, I think this is the most significative: end_request: I/O error, dev sdc, sector 3297507911 XFS (sdc1): metadata I/O error: block 0x7477cb18 ("xlog_iodone") error 5 numblks 64 XFS (sdc1): xfs_do_force_shutdown(0x2) called from line 1172 of file /build/linux-cLkxwy/linux-3.16.7-ckt9/fs/xfs/xfs_l XFS (sdc1): Log I/O Error Detected. Shutting down filesystem XFS (sdc1): Please umount the filesystem and rectify the problem(s) XFS (sdc1): metadata I/O error: block 0xc48bfa08 ("xfs_trans_read_buf_map") error 5 numblks 16 XFS (sdc1): xfs_imap_to_bp: xfs_trans_read_buf() returned error 5. XFS (sdc1): xfs_log_force: error 5 returned. I've run smartctl, and the output doesn't look any promising: walt:~# smartctl -T permissive -x /dev/sdc Vendor: /2:0:0:0 Product: User Capacity: 600,332,565,813,390,450 bytes [600 PB] Logical block size: 774843950 bytes scsiModePageOffset: response length too short, resp_len=47 offset=50 bd_len=46 >> Terminate command early due to bad response to IEC mode page Log Sense failed, IE page [scsi response fails sanity test] Error Counter logging not supported scsiModePageOffset: response length too short, resp_len=47 offset=50 bd_len=46 Device does not support Self Test logging Device does not support Background scan results logging scsiPrintSasPhy Log Sense Failed [scsi response fails sanity test] walt:~# smartctl -T permissive -x /dev/sdc1 Short INQUIRY response, skip product id SMART Health Status: OK Read defect list: asked for grown list but didn't get it Error Counter logging not supported Device does not support Self Test logging Device does not support Background scan results logging scsiPrintSasPhy Log Sense Failed [scsi response fails sanity test] I don't know where to proceed from here. The error seems hardware, but I'm not totally sure. After that, what should I try to do to recover as much as possible? I'm reading about ddrescue now. I don't have space in the other partitions to hold all the data in the failed disk, but I'm only interested in recovering some parts of it as safely as possible. Should I just buy a new disk, try to replicate the original one there, and find out which files are damaged? Or should I create an image as a file stored somewhere else?
