I'm assuming that particular sector on the drive is dying, I have
backed everything up on the drive, can anyone give me more
information, should the drive simply be replaced or is it possible
that this is simply a TOC error and could be corrected by newfs to
the drive?
I'm guessing it will need to be replaced, output of smartctl is
below....
Thanks

Error 7742 occurred at disk power-on lifetime: 16036 hours (668 days
+ 4 hours)
When the command that caused the error occurred, the device was
active or idle.
After command completion occurred, registers were:

Looks like you disk is on its way out, from the look of the above
errors, I would try dd'ing the disk onto a new disk the running an
fsck to make sure everything is ok. I wouldnt hold out much hope for
recovering the data on that sector though.

All,
I've put a new disk into the system, The current disk is 200 GB, the new
disk is 250 GB.
If I run the command:
dd if=/dev/ad2 of=/dev/ad3 conv=noerror
Will this copy the (changing the appropriate device names of course) the
disk as a whole? Will I lose the 50 GB difference?
Is there another way? (like the dump, tar, or just plain copy command?)
The drive is two partitions, one 100GB and the remainder on the other
partition. The files contained are backups of my virtual hosted sites
and the apache directories (including the apache/bin files).
Any suggestions? I've read a good deal of forums online but they seem to
be contradicting. 1/2 say I will loose the remainder of the drive space,
1/2 say that dd is not the best way to go. (there is roughly 35 GB of
data actually on the device).
