With "badblocks", which writes some patterns and re-reads it. But it's of course annoying slow. At these servers I was lucky. Both were "only" 73GB disks used in a RAID-1, so only 2 small drives to check. With a RAID of 8x750GB disks, it will take a *long* time to check, if you cannot simply replace all disks at once. At this customer from today, I would have to take one drive, check it, replace it, let RAID rebuild CRC, take the next... a new mainboard is less work, so I try this first. mfg zmi -- // Michael Monnerie, Ing.BSc ----- http://it-management.at // Tel: 0676/846 914 666 .network.your.ideas. // PGP Key: "curl -s http://zmi.at/zmi.asc | gpg --import" // Fingerprint: AC19 F9D5 36ED CD8A EF38 500E CE14 91F7 1C12 09B4 // Keyserver: www.keyserver.net Key-ID: 1C1209B4
