Interesting, did you get a warning message?
Yes, Root got an email on the first occurrence and then after each re-boot.
Also there was something in logwatch email.
I had to remove udisksd2
because it kept polling SMART information from a disk that should be
asleep and not kept awake all the time. I was wondering what the SMART
information is polled for.

Then I guess we can assume that the disks have not failed.

It seems likely that this is what causes your problem. When you google
for the error message, there are a lot of reports about it. You could
look into them and try to figure out how to solve the issue --- someone
said old meta information caused it, someone else said removing a
package that provides dmraid fixed it for them ...
Yea, I have been looking at those. I was hoping that between here and
filing a bug
I would get the best answer.
Thanks
