I've got an i386 server running centos 4.2 with 3 3ware controllers in it
-- an 8006-2 for the system disks and 2 7500-8s. On the 7500s, I'm
running an all software RAID50. This morning I came in to find the system
hung. Turns out a disk went overnight on one of the 7500s, and rather
than a graceful failover I got this:

The 3ware boards are running the latest firmware and I'm using the stock
driver in the kernel. I *did* have to upgrade mdadm to 1.12.0, as the
stock version doesn't support stacked arrays. 3dmd is running.
Any ideas as to what I can do to prevent this in the future? Having the
system hang every time a disk dies is, well, less than optimal.
Thanks.
