Red ball, rebuild, parity errors, eeks!


Recommended Posts

Last night I decided to add the new EARX drive I'd finished preclearing to my array, so I stopped it.  I stupidly forgot to stop sabnzbd/couchpotato/sickbeard first, not sure that has anything to do with this.  When I stopped it, drive8 redballed on me.  I saved the syslog:

 

Decided to rebuild drive 8 on the new drive I was planning on adding for expansion, so placed it in the drive slot, let it rebuild overnight.  

 

This morning the rebuild was finished, but it's showing that I have 50 errors from the last parity check that finished at 4am; I never ran a parity check, just the rebuild; the only parity checking was the one that ran for a few minutes when I rebooted my server for a couple of minutes before the rebuild (had to reboot due to plugin non-responsiveness...)

 

I'm just wondering what I should do next...

 

-Let it be and RMA the drive that died

-if the syslog indicates the drive is actually probably ok, and I should just preclear it and add it back

-If I should be in panic mode, facing data loss after the drive8 rebuild
