I'm assuming since it's a new RAID that you haven't created files
on it yet, or at least not many. Try running "lsof +D /mnt/point"
to see if there is any process looking at it. Then try running
"inotifywait -rm /mnt/point" and let it run for a little while to
see if you can catch some process accessing the fs. You will need
to install "inotify-tools" to get that program.
Sure, should have said a bit more: The array was resync'ed, then
(much) data was copied in. This was a few days ago.
Did the sync finish? What is the kernel status of the array?
cat /proc/mdstat
Yes, as I mentioned, the sync finished (28/Oct), then the copy finished
(30/Oct).
Acquired a new case and installed the array there (using an old mobo) testing
how
the case ventilation performs. Waiting for a new mobo/CPU/mem.
It is during this quiet period that I noticed the io issue which got me
wondering.
Since this happens only when the array is mounted, and I do not see any files
being
touched, I wondered if this is some ext4 internal housekeeping. Can this be
related
to the size of the fs?
