> + dev=`echo $dev | sed 's/mirror.*/mirror/'` Thanks for the suggestion Kurt. However, I'm not running a mirror on that pool - so am guessing this won't help in my case. I'll try and pick my way through the lulib script if I get any time. Ben -- This message posted from opensolaris.org __

Hi, Quick update: I left memtest running over night - 39 passes, no errors. I also attempted to force the BIOS to run the memory at 800MHz & 5-5-5-15 as suggested - but the machine became very unstable - long boot times; PCI-Express failure of Yukon network card on booting etc. I've switched i

Hi, It's an ASUS P5K-WS board with 2Gb of Corsair TwinX DDR2 8500 1066MHz Non-ECC memory. The board uses the Intel P35 chipset - it also will not support ECC RAM. TBH, this is probably the last time I'll get an ASUS, as this is the second board I've got through - the first one died for no parti

Sent response by private message. Today's findings are that the cksum errors appear on the new disk on the other controller too - so I've ruled out controllers & cables. It's probably as Jeff says - just got to figure out now how to prove the memory is duff. Ben This message posted from ope

Hi Marc, Thanks for all of your suggestions. I'll restart memtest when I'm next in the office and leave it running overnight. I can recreate the pool - but I guess the question is am I safe to do this on the existing setup, or am I going to hit the same issue again sometime? Assuming I don't f

Thanks Marc - I'll run memtest on Monday, and re-seat memory/cpu//cards etc. If that fails, I'll try moving the devices onto a different SATA controller. Failing that I'll rebuild from scratch. Failing that, I'll get a new motherboard! Ben This message posted from opensolaris.org __

I've just purchased an Asus P5K WS, which seems to work OK. I had to download the Marvell Yukon ethernet driver - but it's all working fine. It's also got a PCI-X slot - so I have one of those Super Micro 8 port SATA cards - providing a total of 16 SATA ports across the system. Other specs are o
