So I recently had a pretty big failure. Two drives died, and I had to rebuild my array, having lost a fair bit of data.

 

Now, the array is seemingly back to normal. All green lights, parity check run without error.

 

But there are still intermittent erros when using the array;

 

root@Tower:/mnt/user/MediaShare# mkdir TV

mkdir: cannot create directory `TV': Input/output error

 

The log is full of errors relating to md2:

 

Jun 14 20:40:40 Tower shfs/user: shfs_mkdir: mkdir: /mnt/disk2/MediaShare/TV (5) Input/output error (Errors)

Jun 14 20:40:40 Tower kernel: REISERFS warning (device md2): jdm-20001 reiserfs_xattr_get: Invalid magic for xattr (system.posix_acl_default) associated with [1953724787 1882090853 0x7869736f UNKNOWN] (Minor Issues)

 

Ive run reiserfsck --check /dev/md2 and it completed without error.

 

Not sure what to do next

syslog and smart for all drives. See v5 help in my sig.

PFA syslog and smart reports.

 

Nothing obviously wrong. Some errors on sde, but they seem to be historical, not recent.

 

files.zip

SMARTs OK.

 

Syslog only covers bootup. Get another one that includes the problem activity.

The bit in my original; post is the only activity at the time I see the problem.

 

That said, I think Ive fixed it. I created a new directory alongside the parent of the directory where I had the problem, and moved everything to it, then deleted the problematc one. And now it seems OK...
