To be precise, the 3rd disk shows the correct table while disks 1, 2, 4,
5 and 6 give an error. Since the disk names keep changing on reboot
(which is a different story altogether), this could mean sda, sdb,
{sdc}, sdd, sde and sdf, OR sdc, sdd, {sde}, sdf, sdg and sdh (where
the {marked} one is the new disk, which is showing the partition table
correctly).
I used parted earlier to partition those disks too at installation
(about an year ago), and for quite a while after that they showed the
correct partition table too. I don't know at what stage the partition
tables became inaccessible since I don't examine the partitions of all
the disks on all my servers on a regular basis ;)
