Re: Strange case of vanishing disk
On 06/03/12 20:59, Kaya Saman wrote: this is a very strange issue but I guess will either be related to 2 things, PSU not being powerful enough or disk controller simply being crap. Here's what's going on. I have a little Chenbro 4 disk mini-ITX NAS server with 2x 2TB disks and 2x4TB disks as storage - all spread out over 2 ZFS storage pools. Additionally I am running the root file system on a 40GB SSD. [...] ___ One thing I can think of is to disconnect the questionable disk from the RAID controller card and connect it directly to the motherboard. Then you'd know whether the fault is with the hard drive or the RAID controller. PSU = power supply unit? 180 watts seems very little, I didn't know any modern system could run on so little. I thought the minimum would be around 400 watts, and this would not allow for a powerful gaming graphics card. Maybe you need to replace the power supply with something having more watts, but make sure it will physically fit. Tom Thanks for the response! Here's some more info that I managed to dig up: Jun 4 02:39:19 Zeta-Ray root: ZFS: vdev I/O failure, zpool=ZFS_POOL_2 path=/dev/ad4 offset=270336 size=8192 error=6 Jun 4 02:39:19 Zeta-Ray kernel: ata2: port is not ready (timeout 15000ms) tfd = 00ff Jun 4 02:39:19 Zeta-Ray kernel: ata2: hardware reset timeout Jun 4 02:39:19 Zeta-Ray kernel: unknown: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (1 retry left) LBA=269091394 Yeah, 180 Watts is what comes with the chassis as it's an external power supply. Additionally the system is a Mini-ITX so that would account for less power usage however, in this case I think it might be the PSU that's simply not providing enough power. I will definitely try sticking the downed disk into the motherboard controller directly as that will tell me if the disk is the issue or not. If the problem is actually insufficient power, this won't tell you a thing. You'll have to isolate the power supply as not being a problem before anything else will be relevant. If you swap the two new disks, and the one now on the card fails, it's probably not a disk problem. But you still can't tell if its the card or insufficient power. If you can sideline the two original disks and run, it's probably power. But I'd guess you're oversubscribed in that department. It should be relatively easy to estimate as mfg specs for cpu + mobo + disks is readily available.

I'll look into that. if you are using xfce4, then you have most likely got gamin running as well, this caused the same problem for me when trying to umount an external USB drive gamin *is* installed, and I did have the file browser up and using it to look at the ntfs disk. I thought it might be holding a file open, so first I backed it out to something not on the ntfs disk, then exited it. Made no difference. Maybe the ganim lock is regarding a device file? Not sure about that, I'm not using it here. I'm not sure what the deal is here, but exiting X does solve the problem. I didn't try just killing the environment by shutting down the wm and leaving X up, but if I forget and do something like that again I'll try to remember to try it. In any case, the mount was done after X was started, and switching vtys crashes X so I don't do that. That sounds a bit wrong... Agreed, but I saw someone else was having a similar problem with 9.0 release a bit earlier on a system, and no problem with 8.3. At least I think that was it. Hmmm, just looked and there's a firefox-bin.core and an xfce-appfinder.core. Timestamps look about right for when I did a vty switch. Typo maybe?

Additionally I am running the root file system on a 40GB SSD. The strange thing with this is that I recently installed the 4TB disks and they're brand new. One disk connected to the system board works fine and shows up as online and on one of the channels using atacontrol list. The other disk is connected to a Startech.com Jmicron based 2x SATA RAID controller card. The disk connected to the controller card is having issues. At first the drive wouldn't be seen by the system then after a while all of a sudden it was there. No reboots, no io scans nothing it just appeared. After blasting it with IO for a few days the disk has now vanished again. I had this error in dmesg for a while: ad4: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=113337535 I have tried to use pciconf -lbvv to show the connected interfaces and the JMICRON comes up fine: atapci0@pci0:2:0:0:class=0x010400 card=0x2366197b chip=0x2366197b rev=0x02 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'JMicron Technology Corp.' device = 'JMicron JMB366 AHCI/IDE Controller (JMB36X)' class = mass storage subclass = RAID bar [10] = type I/O Port, range 32, base 0xd040, size 8, enabled bar [14] = type I/O Port, range 32, base 0xd030, size 4, enabled bar [18] = type I/O Port, range 32, base 0xd020, size 8, enabled bar [1c] = type I/O Port, range 32, base 0xd010, size 4, enabled bar [20] = type I/O Port, range 32, base 0xd000, size 16, enabled bar [24] = type Memory, range 32, base 0xd051, size 8192, enabled So why isn't the disk?

RE: Strange case of vanishing disk
I reckon as stated at the beginning that either the 180Watt PSU inside the system isn't enough or the controller is just really poor?? well i got through the same. changing PSU, forced a seller to replace my motherboard (got NEW, not the same - checked), checked all cables, even changing disks. used separate JMicron (as yours) based PCIe controllers, and builtin SATA ports on motherboard. things happened randomly. Checked if chipset isn't overheating on board - it wasn't. Then i just got worried and got some money to buy new (low end model) of Dell Poweredge. Things now works with onboard controller, with addon JMicron PCIe (yes the same cards), with any cables and all disks i tried before including those i considered faulty. What i think is that it is not controllers fault not disk faults or not even CPU/memory/chipset fault but bad motherboard electrical design of some motherboard. Possibly because of just different pattern of operation under windoze most clients don't have such a problem and motherboard are continued to be cheaply produced. As formerly failing JMicron controllers are working fine on Dell server proves that it isn't FreeBSD fault too. Could anyone suggest anything to look into, I'm sure I've covered all the bases but just incase there is something else I can do with this one??

Re: FreeBSD 8.3 support for LSI SAS 2208 based controllers/Dell PERC 710
I'm wondering if this was resolved. I was looking at Dell R610s with Perc H700 and no solid information either. Found a few threads with people having issues with it, no solutions. These been out since early 2010, not cutting edge by any means. Is anyone using Dell R610/R620 with Perc H700/H710 reliably for some time? How can a hardcore server-OS like FreeBSD not have solid support for these popular server platforms :\ The more I run into these issues, the more I'm being forced to consider Linux; this is somewhat sad. I hope I'm mistaken but it seems like there is less and less support for mainstream server out-of-box hardware lately. -Simon On Thu, 17 May 2012 11:24:01 -0400, kpn...@pobox.com wrote: On Wed, May 16, 2012 at 02:07:30PM -0500, Mark Felder wrote: On Wed, 16 May 2012 13:04:25 -0500, Rick Miller vmil...@hostileadmin.com wrote: Would anyone else out there have any experience with installing FreeBSD on the R620 and be able to provide any tips for troubleshooting?

I also have an R620 possibly with the same card. FreeBSD 8.3 does not see the card. FreeBSD 9.0 sees the card well enough to hang the kernel trying to get a good response out of the probe. I thought the mfi driver was the relevant one? I'm pretty sure that's the one that hangs 9.0. I'll check tonight.

I don't quite understand the relationship between the params in the label and the filesystem. My impression was that the params in the label for a filesystem were mandatory, but it appears not all of them are. It seems like there should be a cmd to run to get reasonable starting point numbers.

Hi Roland,
I don't think you want to hardcode the py27- in the variable
assignment, since it ties the filename to a specific version of
Python. Check PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX, and it should adjust itself as
the Python version changes.
Hope that helps,

Hi Roland,
I don't think you want to hardcode the py27- in the variable
assignment, since it ties the filename to a specific version of
Python. Check PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX, and it should adjust itself as
the Python version changes.
Actually, if I understood correctly, the fact that PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX
_changes_ from py- to py27- in different parts of the included .mk files is
what causes the problem in the first place. So I did this on purpose.

Re: FreeBSD 8.3 support for LSI SAS 2208 based controllers/Dell PERC 710
I'm glad to hear at least the Perc 6/i is working fine with R610 which is what I'm looking to get to avoid all the trouble with the new R620 Albeit I need to use the 1TB SAS drives that are 6gbps, so I really wanted to use the H700 instead of the much older Perc 6/i, which I also have working fine in a number of R710s When you get a chance, please find out what those other R610s are running and in what RAID config.

I was looking at Dell R610s with Perc H700 and no solid information either. Found a few threads with people having issues with it, no solutions. These been out since early 2010, not cutting edge by any means. Is anyone using Dell R610/R620 with Perc H700/H710 reliably for some time? I've got an R610 with the PERC 6/i (not what you asked) that runs like a champ. I plan on upgrading the card at some point, but for now it works fine. The trick was to turn off _all_ the power savings features (C1E, etc) in the BIOS. We have I don't even know how many R610 at work running FreeBSD 8.2 with some kind of RAID card, but I don't know which one. Those machines get pounded all day every day and I haven't heard of any problems. I haven't noticed any as a user. I'll find out and report back. I also have my R620 and the latest stable/8 has support for the H710 card (Mini, Monolithic). It works well enough to create a couple of ZFS pools and copy the install of FreeBSD over to the disks. But I have the Broadcom 5720 network daughtercard that doesn't work yet, so I don't know how the H710 performs under load. Am I correct that LSI is contributing to the drivers for the Dell cards that use LSI chips? Can someone verify that I'm not looney? The R620 went on sale within days of Intel's release of the chips. To be fair to FreeBSD the firmware that Dell shipped is ... half baked at best. For a while it insisted on using the wrong IP when using DHCP, the network upgrade of the firmware via FTP+proxy requests the wrong URL, etc etc. The Dell DVD-ROM USB drive can't be connected at the same time as the iDRAC network port or else the firmware won't initialize. And Dell had access to the hardware before it shipped. So I can't complain about FreeBSD's support for the R620 not being 100% in place when Dell hasn't gotten their act together yet. I'm told that support for the Broadcom card is being worked on. I do not have a timeframe. -- Kevin P.

You'll need GNU find: #!/bin/sh export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin test $1 || set . echo '#filetype|inode|links|uname|gname|mode|size|mtime|pathname' gfind $@ -printf '%y|%i|%n|%u|%g|%m|%s|%T@|%p\n' exit 0 Sample output: root# chown 1234 stuff root# chgrp 5678 stuff me% ls -l drwxr-sr-x 3 kev local512 04-Jun-2012 21:01:41 . drwxr-xr-x 2 kev local512 04-Jun-2012 21:38:47 mail -rw-r--r-x 1 kev local 47072 04-Jun-2012 19:34:26 mail/junk* -rw-r--r-- 1 1234 5678 85 19-May-2012 23:28:30 stuff -rw-r--r-- 1 kev local 8104 04-Jun-2012 19:43:44 testing me% [run script] #filetype|inode|links|uname|gname|mode|size|mtime|pathname d|873603|3|kev|local|2755|512|1338858101|. d|1188634|2|kev|local|2755|512|1338860327|./mail f|1188649|1|kev|local|645|47072|1338852866|./mail/junk f|955452|1|1234|5678|644|85|1337484510|./stuff f|873708|1|kev|local|644|8104|1338853424|./testing Run this first, then look for the conditions you want using awk or perl. Advantages: * Doesn't change ctime, no additional filetree-walking. * You can use this to create your locate DB, if you want to avoid a second pass through the filesystem. * Gives you a point-in-time picture of ownership, mode, etc. in case you need to back out your changes. -- Karl Vogel I don't speak for the USAF or my company When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. --Henny Youngman ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Well, for starters, gnupg is at version 2.0.19 in my ports tree, so I am not sure what is wrong with yours. I might suggest the following. 1) Clean out /usr/ports/distfiles 2) Update your ports tree 3) Run: make clean in the gnupg port 4) Attempt to rebuild and install the port. -- Jerry ??? no joy. I did another full upgrade. first time in many months. then spent a couple hours with portmaster (thank you, Roland:). this as a first upgrade. what I want to do is get as current as possible and then install 7.5. and stay there. another question involves accepting the 3-D windows with whatever options they might present. is there any upgrade utility or flag that will accept and upgrade things without me having to be here? -- Gary Kline kl...@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix Voice By Computer (for Universal Access): http:/www.thought.org/vbc The 8.57a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org Twenty-five years of service to the Unix community. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Check PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX, and it should adjust itself as the Python version changes. Actually, if I understood correctly, the fact that PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX _changes_ from py- to py27- in different parts of the included .mk files is what causes the problem in the first place. So I did this on purpose. Roland Hi Roland, Ok, I should have read the previous thread emails more closely. At any rate, putting a specific Python version into the name of the OPTIONSFILE seems a bit confusing. OTOH, it keeps the name of /var/db/port/name/options in line with the packagename (without the version number), and it is what most Python-based ports seem to do. Could you achieve the same outcome by putting py- instead of py27- in the name? Yes, more or less. There are ports that do that as well. But the majority seem to include the python version. AFAICT to be able to install the same package with different options for different Python versions. Anyway, the PR for updating my port is out. And one of the maintainers is working on some of the warts of the ports system. It turns out that this bug was already reported two years ago. But the ports system is quite a complex beast...
