Hi. I have a strong problem with my server, and I think it depends from
SATA
disk or SATA controller or SATA cable or other thing in this way.
Now I
will describe my hardware and than what problem happens.

== HARDWARE ==
- Mother board SuperMicro X6DAi-G2
http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon800/E7525/X6DAi-G2.cfm
- 2x CPU XEON Dual Core 2.8Ghz
- 4GB RAM KingStone
- 6 x Disk SATA Maxtor 300GB
- PCI Serial ATA Controller (4 port) ChipSet SiI 3114
- VGA Asus (nVidia) N6200TC

Machine have 2 raid software.
- md0 is RAID 0 (5 disk + 1 spare) 28 GiB
- md1 is RAID 5 (5 disk + 1 spare) 789 GiB

== PROBLEM ==
On this machine I have installed RedHad and recently Debian Sarge with
kernel
2.6 smp, but for my problem distro or kernel appears no different. After
small
uptime - approximately 10-14 days - machine freeze and tty1 said:

* ata1: command 0x35 timeout, stat 0xd0 host_stat 0x61
* scsi0: error on channel 0, id 1, lun 0, CDB: write (10) 00 03 7d fe bf
00 \\
* 00 08 00
* current sdb: sense key Medium error Additional sense: write error - auto
\\
* reallocation failed
* end_request: i/o error, dev sdb, sector 5858863
* ATA: abnormal status 0xD0 on port 0x1F7

No errors are reported into syslog. Local or remote login are disabled,
but
machine reply to ping message.

In past months I have replaced SATA cable, sdb and PCI controller,
operative
system and kernel, but situation is not change. Now I think that the
problem
lives on mother board controller or in bios configurations or in exotic
magic
bad lucky.

Can you (or someone) help me?

Could it be the disks themselves?

Please post the following output:

smartctl -d -a /dev/sda

Where sda represents the disk(s) in question.

Justin.


All disk responds:
Device does not support SMART

I don't know how enable SMART (-S on, don't work, in BIOS I can't find
SMART references).

Hrm, what kernel are you running?

You are using /dev/sda, etc and not /dev/md0 right?

Justin.
