Hi, Is there a way to tell / narrow down if an issue with errors like below are due to a bad cable or bad port multiplier ? The disks in a particular cage are throwing errors like these below. (RELENG9 from today) siis0 at pci0:5:0:0: class=0x010400 card=0x71241095 chip=0x31241095 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Silicon Image, Inc.' device = 'SiI 3124 PCI-X Serial

I dumpster dived an older low end Dell (actually, found it in a field in a fresh dump pile). Case looked good, only flaws appeared to be missing cdrom bezel and the heat sink clamp was off (but not broken). After cleaning cpu/heat sink and fresh thermal paste, I found out why it was dumped - the internal hard drive was bad, and the optical drive is going bad. I had an old 80 GB Seagate and

I''ve been trying to install a 2.6.37-12 kernel from kernel-ppa on one of my Ubuntu machines without success. It keeps giving errors like this: [ 9.115544] ata9: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0xf SErr 0x0 action 0x10 frozen [ 9.115550] ata9.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED [ 9.115556] ata9.00: cmd 60/04:00: d4:82:85/00:00:1f:00:00/40 tag 0 ncq 2048 in [ 9.115557]

Hi All, I am fairly certain that this disk is failing in my server, and I am replacing it straight away anyway. However, I'd appreciate the views of the list just to be sure as I value your opinion(s). I got these errors, once only so far, in /var/log/messages. This disk has / on it.

My wife's box has a very intermittent problem, when booting from the Maxtor IDE hard drive. This has been going on for about 2 1/2 years.... The box is a Compaq EVO D300v for the Enterprise. When it boots, there is a SMART advisory from the BIOS that says failure is immenient. Occasionally, it will not boot, because the BIOS does not see the hard drive. I replaced the EIDE cable, but the

I finally fixed my drive error problem. This has been going on quite a while. I've posted before with no success on getting this fixed. I was getting these errors.

Hi, I have a SATA PCIe 6Gbps 4 port controller card made by Startech. The kernel (Linux viz1 2.6.32-220.4.1.el6.x86_64) sees it as Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88SE9123 I use it to provide extra SATA ports to a raid system. The HD's are all "WD2003FYYS" and so run at 3Gbps on the 6Gbps controller. However I am seeing lots of instances of errors like this

Might be slightly OT as it isn't necessarily a CentOS related issue. I've been using WD Reds as mdraid components which worked pretty well for non-IOPS intensive workloads. However, the latest C7 server I built, ran into problems with them on on a Intel C236 board (SuperMicro X11SSH) with tons of "ata bus error write fpdma queued". Googling on it threw up old suggestions to

The subject says ‘xpath_get_nodes()‘, but this function doesn't actually take a unit parameter, so it's better to drop ‘()’.

Got a bunch of servers from Penguin. Supermicro m/b's H8QG6. We put a 3tb drive in for additional workspace for the users, and some of them won't read, others will go for weeks, then spit out DRDY errors. lshw shows the controller as an ATI SB7x0/SB8x0/SB9x0 SATA. I did notice that it shows *-storage description: SATA controller product: SB7x0/SB8x0/SB9x0 SATA

Hi all, These are new releases of dm-ioband and blkio-cgroup. The major changes of these releases are: - dm-ioband can be configured through the cgroup interface. The bandwidth can be assigned on a per cgroup per block device basis. - The event tracing is supported that helps in debugging and monitoring dm-ioband. - A document for blkio-cgroup is available at
