Rarely, a geli partition I have freezes a process in bufwait state. It occurs after an ATA timeout message: Aug 5 03:47:13 thor kernel: ad10: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=219028637
The geli partition resides on an Intel MatrixRAID RAID1 mirror using the ICH9R chipset (Asus P5K-E/WIFI). Killing (even -9) the process does not work. Rebooting is the only solution, yet the system is unable to flush the buffers and complete a clean unmounting. Both drives in the mirror have both survived a smartctl -t offline scan. Also, a previous time it was with ad12, so I strongly doubt it is the drive. It seems like a geli partition is unable to handle a timeout from a drive. ad10: Model Family: Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 and 7200.7 Plus family Device Model: ST3160827AS ad12: Model Family: Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 and 7200.7 Plus family Device Model: ST3160827AS Sean P.S. I could not help myself with the subject line. :) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
