Paritiy drive errors


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

Today i saw in the main window that i have errors in my parity drive. I've started a Parity-Check (now at 74%) and so far there aren't any sync errors. I've noticed that i'm getting a lot of errors in my syslog.

I'm running 5.0-beta6a.

Any idea's ? the HD is failing?

You're talking about this line:

197 Current_Pending_Sector  0x0032   200   200   000    Old_age   Always       -       292

 

What about the errors in the syslog, they are related?

 

 

Yes, they are related.  I would probably make sure all connections are secure and good.  Also replace any cables that you can.

The errors are "read" errors.  Those are sectors that are un-readable.

 

At 292, I'd replace the drive.  Until you re-calculate parity, that parity disk will clobber 292 sectors of any disk you try to rebuild if one were to fail.

 

You can attempt to fix the errors (by re-allocating the unreadable sectors)  by

 

Stopping the array

un-assigning the parity disk

Starting the array with it un-assigned

Stopping the array once more

Re-assigning the parity drive

Starting the array with it re-assigned.  It will re-write parity with exactly the same contents as current, but the SMART firmware should re-allocate the un-readable sectors.

 

I'd still RMA it.  It is unlikely to get better.
