[CentOS] Strangely slow disk
I have a 1.5TB Western Digital hard disk (WD15EADS-00R6B0) on my CentOS-5.7 server, which has become incredibly slow for some operations, eg rsync, BackupPC archive, e2fsck, although it seems to work fine for ordinary file operations, and smartctl -a /dev/sdb does not report any errors. For example, running e2fsck -p /dev/sdb5 on a 250GB partition on this disk took over 24 hours to complete, as it did on another partition.

Re: [CentOS] Strangely slow disk
Those are slowish times even for a 7200rpm disk. My desktop here at home (Ubuntu) has a slow 7200 drive and hdparam reports a lot faster than that. Well, it is a Caviar Green drive which means that 7200 is the fastest speed but it does spin slower too. amckay@amckay-desktop:~$ sudo !! sudo hdparm -t /dev/sda [sudo] password for amckay: /dev/sda: Timing buffered disk reads: 244 MB in 3.01 seconds = 81.10 MB/sec amckay@amckay-desktop:~$ -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of In Defense of Food ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] Strangely slow disk
You have not said anything yet in this thread about defragging that drive.

Re: [CentOS] Strangely slow disk
Also - boot a live Linux CD and then from there do hdparam again and compare results, If they differ vastly at least you know it is something in your running system which is the culprit. If they are roughly the same then it is likely the drive gone bad. Though check the man page for hdparam to see if disk fragmentation will affect the results it gives. -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of In Defense of Food ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] Intel SE7210TP1-E giving memory errors
Hi List, I've been getting the following EDAC memory errors EDAC MC0: CE page 0xeb0dd, offset 0x0, grain 4096, syndrome 0x45, row 3, channel 0, label : i82875p CE and from this seeing that these errors have been corrected. Checking cat /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/csrow3/ch0_ce_count gives me a count of 4 thus I now know that csrow3 - ch0 is the problem My question is, how does this map to the on board labels DIMM 1A DIMM 1B DIMM 2A DIMM 2B Am I correct in assuming csrow 3 is DIMM 2B? Also I have just discovered that both the OS drives sda and sdb have huge number of errors shown on the SMART records - can this relate to the memory errors?? - I am just really surprised to have two drives show almost identical number of errors at the same time, yet no apparent data errors - Drives are ATA ST380013AS 74.53 GB TIA for your insightful comments ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
