December 22, 201213 yr I have a problem that I don't understand. Sometimes when I run parity check it will red ball my parity drive with a lot of errors and one of my data drives will have problems with it and be disabled but not red balled. The data drive that happens to is always the same one no matter what Sata port it is connected to. It will also have some crazy high read and write numbers that just seem to instantly increase. For example this last time I had 578,181,453,775,917,696 for my reads and the writes was even higher. I have seen it get that high in what seems like a few seconds. When I access the data drive that has the problem through windows I can access it and see everything even with a disabled parity drive. If I reboot the server sometimes both the parity and data drives come back online with no problems and other times it will say I have installed a new parity drive and wants to run a parity check again. When I try to get a log of the SMART report all I get in it is "Smartctl open device: /dev/sde failed: No such device" for both drives but only one is red balled. Some things I have tried. I have an addon SATA card that the drives were connected two so I moved those drives off of it and to the motherboards SATA controller. I have also swapped SATA cables and neither seemed to help at all. I have SMART reports for my two drives giving me problems after a reboot and a screen shoot of the main screen when the error happens. It is giving me problems when I upload my syslog to this post so once I can get that uploaded I will add that as well. If more info is needed let me know and I will supply it. Logs.zip
December 22, 201213 yr Syslogs compress really well. Zip the entire log and edit your first post to attach it there.
December 22, 201213 yr sde appear to be having communications problems. Try a new cable and a different SARA port. Disk 6 has file system errors. See Check File Systems in my sig.
December 22, 201213 yr Author I will do the check files system for disk 6 and see how that goes. SDE is my parity drive and has all ready had the cables change on it and different sata ports so maybe the drive it self is going bad then.
