Hi All, I have 4 drives in a RAID-5 configuration.
One of the drives broke. I replaced said drive, did a 'raidhotadd /dev/md0 /dev/hdb2'. Watched it for a while and then went home. And then /dev/hde failed too. The syncing wasn't done: Jan 25 19:17:23 clio kernel: hde: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } Jan 25 19:17:23 clio kernel: hde: dma_intr: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=80464841, sector=79214920 Jan 25 19:17:23 clio kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 21:03 (hde), sector 79214920 Jan 25 19:17:23 clio kernel: raid5: Disk failure on ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part3, disabling device. Operation continuing on 2 devices Jan 25 19:17:23 clio kernel: md: updating md1 RAID superblock on device Jan 25 19:17:23 clio kernel: md: (skipping faulty ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part3 ) Jan 25 19:17:23 clio kernel: md: md_do_sync() got signal ... exiting And then ext3 went bonkers: Jan 25 19:29:11 clio kernel: EXT3-fs error (device md(9,1)): ext3_get_inode_loc: unable to read inode block - inode=32997377, block=65994779 Jan 25 19:29:12 clio kernel: EXT3-fs error (device md(9,1)): ext3_readdir: directory #17055779 contains a hole at offset 0 Jan 25 19:32:56 clio kernel: EXT3-fs error (device md(9,1)): ext3_get_inode_loc: unable to read inode block - inode=26214401, block=52428827 Ok, so my question is: Any way in which I can salvage at least a part of the data? -- Danie Roux *shuffle* Adore Unix -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
