SATA 500Gb disk problem
Hello, We have some dedicated servers at layeredtech. Currently new SATA 500Gb drive was added to each server and we now noticed strange problems with all of them: all new sata disks failed under normal load (3-6 Mbit/s I/O). Engineers at data center replaced the drives but they failed again and again. Do you have any experience in working with 500Gb or more SATA drive? OS: FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE #1: Sun Aug 13 20:29:03 CDT 2006 And this is the information from dmesg of one of our servers: ad4: 476940MB at ata2-master SATA150 da0 at mpt0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device da0: 320.000MB/s transfers (160.000MHz, offset 63, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 70007MB (143374744 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 8924C) Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/da0s1a WARNING: / was not properly dismounted WARNING: /home was not properly dismounted WARNING: /tmp was not properly dismounted /tmp: mount pending error: blocks 0 files 4 WARNING: /usr was not properly dismounted WARNING: /var was not properly dismounted WARNING: /var/tmp was not properly dismounted WARNING: /mnt/sata was not properly dismounted ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (1 retry left) LBA=663885183 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (0 retries left) LBA=663885183 ad4: FAILURE - WRITE_DMA48 timed out LBA=663885183 g_vfs_done():ad4s1d[WRITE(offset=339909181440, length=16384)]error = 5 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (1 retry left) LBA=828848959 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (0 retries left) LBA=828848959 ad4: FAILURE - WRITE_DMA48 timed out LBA=828848959 g_vfs_done():ad4s1d[WRITE(offset=424370634752, length=32768)]error = 5 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (1 retry left) LBA=885960859 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (0 retries left) LBA=885960859 ad4: FAILURE - WRITE_DMA48 timed out LBA=885960859 g_vfs_done():ad4s1d[WRITE(offset=453611927552, length=2048)]error = 5 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (1 retry left) LBA=857331839 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (0 retries left) LBA=857331839 ad4: FAILURE - WRITE_DMA48 timed out LBA=857331839 g_vfs_done():ad4s1d[WRITE(offset=438953869312, length=16384)]error = 5 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (1 retry left) LBA=862600415 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (0 retries left) LBA=862600415 ad4: FAILURE - WRITE_DMA48 timed out LBA=862600415 g_vfs_done():ad4s1d[WRITE(offset=441651380224, length=16384)]error = 5 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (1 retry left) LBA=907763295 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (0 retries left) LBA=907763295 ad4: FAILURE - WRITE_DMA48 timed out LBA=907763295 g_vfs_done():ad4s1d[WRITE(offset=464774774784, length=16384)]error = 5 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA48 retrying (1 retry left) LBA=951794815 - With best regards, |The Power to Serve Nguyen Tam Chinh| http://www.FreeBSD.org Loc: sp.cs.msu.su | ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
