The system is an older AMD Opteron 180 processor (dual core) 4 GB ram, RAID controller with RAID 5 set up with 4x 4TB Western Digital Drives. I rebooted the system day before yesterday, and that's when the timeout messages started pouring into the log. when I run tw_cli /c8 show, all four drives say they are ok [root@daisy cron.daily]# tw_cli /c8 show Unit UnitType Status %RCmpl %V/I/M Stripe Size(GB) Cache AVrfy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ u0 RAID-5 OK - - 256K 11175.8 Ri ON VPort Status Unit Size Type Phy Encl-Slot Model ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ p0 OK u0 3.63 TB SATA 0 - WDC WD4005FZBX-00K5 p1 OK u0 3.63 TB SATA 1 - WDC WD4005FZBX-00K5 p2 OK u0 3.63 TB SATA 2 - WDC WD4005FZBX-00K5 p3 OK u0 3.63 TB SATA 3 - WDC WD4005FZBX-00K5 Logical Volumes appear active: [root@daisy cron.daily]# lvscan ACTIVE '/dev/vg_daisy/lv_root' [10.89 TiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/vg_daisy/lv_swap' [3.88 GiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/vg_daisy/lv_home' [20.00 GiB] inherit [root@daisy cron.daily]# [root@daisy cron.daily]# lvmdiskscan /dev/ram0 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/root [ 10.89 TiB] /dev/ram1 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/sda1 [ 2.82 TiB] /dev/vg_daisy/lv_swap [ 3.88 GiB] /dev/ram2 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/vg_daisy/lv_home [ 20.00 GiB] /dev/ram3 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/sda3 [ 842.87 GiB] /dev/ram4 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram5 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram6 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram7 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram8 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram9 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram10 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram11 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram12 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram13 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram14 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/ram15 [ 16.00 MiB] /dev/sdb1 [ 1.82 TiB] LVM physical volume /dev/sdc1 [ 500.00 MiB] /dev/sdc2 [ 4.00 TiB] LVM physical volume /dev/sdd1 [ 4.00 TiB] LVM physical volume /dev/sde1 [ 2.91 TiB] LVM physical volume 3 disks 19 partitions 0 LVM physical volume whole disks 4 LVM physical volumes [root@daisy cron.daily]# grub.conf: [root@daisy grub]# cat grub.conf # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition.
