how to anticipate failing drive?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hi all,

well - i've been running ataraid on my mandrake 8.2 for ... dunno -
months.  all is fine, but i'm concerned about anticipating failure on
the drives, or knowing when the drive has failed without ever seeing the
box.

is there any way to know if a drive is fialing or has failed while the
system is running?  the box is a fileserver, and hence is never really
rebooted.  i guess i'm asking how to get the status on a device
reliably.

thanks,
jinn
