You may want to excercise your I/O subsystem.
Given that you probably don't want to stomp on a live filesystem, you
might want to create a file of a couple of gigabytes and turn it into
a pseudo-device with
'lofs(1)'.
EG:
# make a 15GB test file
dd if=/dev/zero of=the_testfile bs=1M count=15000
I failed over the server and ran a short backup and there were no
"didn't compare" errors where on the first server, they are there
pretty reliably. I guess this confirms some hardware on the first
server is flipping bits. Essentially, users could have any number of
munged files (most files are
I guess I will watch it closely for now and if it trips up again
failover to the drbd peer and see what happens there. I suppose I
could even deattach the local disks and have it run using the peer
over the wire. That should eliminate the local I/O subsystem.
It's kind of scary there is no en

Hi Maurice,
Do you mean a Serially-Attached SCSI aka SAS controller, I assume?
Is this a custom build machine or a vendor integrated one?

There are absolutely many places where corruption could occur between
MySQL and the physical bits on disk. The corruption you're seeing does

Thank you for your replies. I attempted to restore again and most
oddly, mysql complained that it couldn't restore to a particular
table because it wasn't in the database, which, of course, it had to
be because the restore itself had just recreated it. So I blew away
the entire mysql directory
The checksum errors might be due to various reasons. We had similar issue
where we restored the database multiple times, replaced the ram sticks
nothing helped. Finally we drilled down the issue to the chassis. Recommend
testing the restore on a different machine to rule out any hardware issue.

Hi
This might be happening due to two reasons;
1 The system date might not be correct.
2. Some things wrong with log postion (Incorrect log position)
