It shows half a dozen errors in red and no indication that they have been corrected. However it's hard to know if they're recent or not as the only timing info is "Lifetime hours" since the disk was first powered on. 5 of them are at 672 hours and one at 11,359 hours, so the evidence would suggest a burst of errors a long time ago (perhaps a power failure) and one more recently. > There is a resync checking process that happens every once in a while, > but you can trigger it yourself manually. > > echo check > /sys/block/md127/md/sync_action I'll try that, thanks. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
