I just had a strange freeze that killed networking and made software RAID fail two of my harddisks. There are a bunch of messages from the kernel which I extracted from the system log after reboot at the end of this mail. I hit power off in pure paranoia after the box froze, and then started to do disk I/O again just right after I noticed the messages about two of my RAID disks had failed on the console. The network didn't recover when the harddrive suddenly started working again. I managed to connect an USB keyboard and wake up the monitor from sleep so I could see some of the messages printed on the console. I looked through some other threads and found a mention of smartmontools which I too use (5.37-5ubuntu2). Kernel 2.6.22-14-generic (Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon 7.10) Motherboard: Asus M2N32 WS Professional nForce 590 SLI MCP (MCP55) CPU: Athlon64 X2 Dual-Core 5600+ RAM: 4GB (passed memtest86 just a few minutes ago) The harddrives are four Samsung HD501LJ 500GB drives. sda and sdb have firmware CR100-10 and sdc and sdd have firmware CR100-11. The drives are just a couple of months old, well cooled and so far there's nothing interesting reported by S.M.A.R.T. Software raid is configured like this: sda1,sdc1 -> md0 (raid 1) sdb1,sdd1 -> md1 (raid 1) Both md0 and md1 are then encrypted with dm-crypt and the dm-devices are then used to form md2 (stripe). -- noah # lspci 00:00.0 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Host Bridge (rev a2) 00:00.1 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 0 (rev a2) 00:00.2 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 1 (rev a2) 00:00.3 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 5 (rev a2) 00:00.4 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 4 (rev a2) 00:00.5 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Host Bridge (rev a2) 00:00.6 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 3 (rev a2) 00:00.7 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 2 (rev a2) 00:04.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a1) 00:08.0 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation MCP55 Memory Controller (rev a1) 00:09.0 ISA bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 LPC Bridge (rev a2) 00:09.1 SMBus: nVidia Corporation MCP55 SMBus (rev a2) 00:09.2 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation MCP55 Memory Controller (rev a2) 00:0a.0 USB Controller: nVidia Corporation MCP55 USB Controller (rev a1) 00:0a.1 USB Controller: nVidia Corporation MCP55 USB Controller (rev a2) 00:0c.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation MCP55 IDE (rev a1) 00:0d.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation MCP55 SATA Controller (rev a2) 00:0d.1 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation MCP55 SATA Controller (rev a2) 00:0d.2 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation MCP55 SATA Controller (rev a2) 00:0e.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 PCI bridge (rev a2) 00:0e.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP55 High Definition Audio (rev a2) 00:10.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 Ethernet (rev a2) 00:11.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 Ethernet (rev a2) 00:12.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 PCI Express bridge (rev a2) 00:14.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 PCI Express bridge (rev a2) 00:15.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 PCI Express bridge (rev a2) 00:16.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 PCI Express bridge (rev a2) 00:17.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 PCI Express bridge (rev a2) 00:18.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] HyperTransport Technology Configuration 00:18.1 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Address Map 00:18.2 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] DRAM Controller 00:18.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Miscellaneous Control 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8400 GS (rev a1) 02:06.0 Communication controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc.
