Now, does the timeout cause loss of any data? Is there anything besides
disabling the testing that I can do about it?
Do you understand what short and long offline tests actually do and what
they're used for?  :-)  If so, you'd know that running them periodically
is more or less silly (IMHO).
I do not, not completely :) I think I have just copied the settings from
somewhere and only just tweaked it a bit whenever I have added a disk.

Let me know if you figure out who or what online resource solicited
adding daily short/long tests, as I'd like to talk to them about their
decision.  I have a feeling whoever thought it up felt that the tests
were performing entire sector scans of the entire disk, which is simply
not the case.


Hallo,

Reading this thread I checked my config to find this: ;-)

#/dev/ad0 -a -n standby,q -o on -S on -s (S/../.././02|L/../../7/03) -m root # ++ 2006-11-03 mato /dev/ad0 -a -o on -S on -s (S/../.././02|L/../../7/03) -m root # ++ 2006-11-03 mato

I believe I came up with the settings after reading manual page / documentation of the tool.

Regards,

Martin
