Can someone please take a look at my logs. After my last parity check, Parity disc 2 showed an error. I am not really sure as to how to proceed. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks!

It's logged as a disk problem and SMART is showing some issues, run an extended SMART test.

I know it usually take a long time to run the extended SMART check. Do you think that it would be better, and probably faster, to just swap that Parity disc for a new one?

It's a possibility, then you can test the other disk with more time.

I think that I will go with this route. So, what's the best way to do this. Stop the array, un-assign the parity 2 disc. Assign a new one to it. Restart the array, and have the parity rebuild?

 

Do I need to do anything else in between those steps?

Nope, that's it.

OK, thank you. 

By the way, here is the SMART report. To my very novice eye, doesn't look good.

It does not.

Switching to a new one is a good idea.

You shouldn't attempt to use that disk again for anything.

@levster, You might want to update your signature one of these days...
