April 1, 20188 yr Community Expert Hey Everyone, So long story short. I just built a new dual core Xeon build. I moved all my drives and memory to the new case. When I moved the SuperMicro 5 drive cage, I accidentally unplugged fan so my drives started running hot and came home to alarms blaring. Drives were hitting mid 50's Celsius for a couple of hours intermittently as there were being used. I powered down server, re-attached the fan and powered server back up. Disk 6 dropped offline. I assumed I knocked the cable when re-attaching the fan so I stopped the array, removed disk, stopped and added disk back in. During the rebuild I am now getting reallocated sector count errors on one of my parity (Dual Parity) drives. Drives 3 and 4 also were showing thousands of errors so I stopped the rebuild. Not sure where I should go from here. I am running a extended smart test on parity 1, disk 3, 4 & 6 now. Attaching diags from earlier. Any help would be appreciated. debo-server-diagnostics-20180331-2216.zip
April 1, 20188 yr Community Expert You never want to use the Marvell controller on those boards, the 4 first four white SATA ports, they are known to drop disks all the time, the reallocated sectors on the parity disk are a disk problem but guess where the other problem disks are connected?
April 1, 20188 yr Author Community Expert Thanks Johnnie, I made an assumption that the marvel controller was the 4 ports away from other 10. I did read some about issues with Marvell controller but thought the iommu=pt to the go file would help with drives dropping off array. I moved everything off Marvell controller and added my dell perc 310 to give me the needed sata ports. It is doing the rebuild of disk 6 now. Hopefully all goes well. I appreciate your assistance! DB
