 Posted: Sat Jun 26, 2010 3:34 pm Post subject: RAID 0+1 Resync Kernel Panic |
 |
|
About a week ago I realized that my machine was moving pretty slowly.
I checked on the raid array and it was resyncing... and then later locked up while still resyncing.
Now when I boot it up and leave it it will still try and resync. but throw a kernel panic a few hours later and lock up.
The Array is 4x 500 GB WD drives. in a Raid 0+1...
If I boot it up it will work for a few hours, but then when it is resyncing, it will hard lock up in 1-2 hours.
Not sure how I should proceed from here?
Is there a way to stop it from resyncing so I can safely copy over to an external drive?
Or should I remove the bad disk temporarily, then copy over and RMA the drive?

djhomeless,
Your error can be a bad cable or a bad drive.
Try a new cable first but do not swap them round in your raid set, that may just trash the data on another drive.
If you know which cable is attached to ata6, just unplugging and reconnecting the cable both ends may help.
Failing the drive will restore normal operation in degraded mode so you can copy the data off the raid set.

Thanks for the help, i swapped out the hopefully offending cable and am trying to resync it again.
If this doesnt work by failing the drive do you just mean removing it? or something like this?
mdadm --manage /dev/md3 --fail /dev/sdd3
thanks again |

djhomeless,
Either works.
The idea is to make in unavailablr to the raid array.
If you leave the dead drive connected but remove it from the array, you can try a few tests on it, like reading its SMART data with smartmontools, copying it to /dev/null to check for read errors, running badbocks ans allowing it to write to the drive.
Even getting the WD disk test program to run on it.
Be aware that some of the tests will destroy your data - so don't do them to the wrong drive.
