-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'd welcome suggestions on how (or whether) to try to revive a SCSI drive that's failing.
This is on FreeBSD 6.2-RELENG on a Compaq Proliant DL320, onboard RAID and two SCSI drives in a RAID1 array. Today this system rebooted and hung on Compaq's "what do you want the RAID controller to do?" message. I told it to fix any errors. When I brought the system back up (after running fsck in single-user mode), the log had lots of errors like this: Nov 10 09:00:40 mail kernel: ida0: hard write error Nov 10 09:00:40 mail kernel: ida0: invalid request Nov 10 09:01:48 mail last message repeated 35 times Nov 10 09:03:49 mail last message repeated 571 times Nov 10 09:12:27 mail last message repeated 796 times I vaguely remember trying about a year ago to load a SMART utility from the ports collection but it wouldn't work on drives in a RAID array. Is there some other way to: a) diagnose/fix the errant disk here? b) monitor the health of disks on a Compaq controller so it doesn't get to this point to begin with? thanks in advance dn -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Darwin) iD8DBQFHNlk+yPxGVjntI4IRAntlAJ9FWA2ez+BdnViq7mrIpkLBTLm/CgCfRyEA czDvMn6+8KjlI3V0iBG4U3I= =36+k -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
