Hi all, I have a 500GB Seagate disk[0] attached to an el-cheapo PCI-plugin Promise SATA controller[1], which I've had for a couple of years. Every so often, the disk stops responding and is eventually disabled. I'm trying to determine whether this is a hardware fault or not - and if so, whether the disk or the controller is at fault; any insight would be appreciated. When the problem happens, the entries for that disk in /dev are removed, and so far as I know, the only way to restore the disk is by rebooting. I've tried things like "rmmod sata_promise && modpobe sata_promise", and restarting udev, because it seemed like a good idea at the time, but to be honest I haven't a clue what I should be looking at. After rebooting, the disk works fine again for a while. I've included the output of dmesg from the most recent occurrence. The controller card was previously in use in another system without issue, with a 300GB disk which is otherwise similar (the current disk is essentially the upgraded model). That system was less frequently left running for the length of time that the problematic machine is though. The machine in question acts as a fileserver, which was initially using Samba to share the disk. A couple of months ago I decided to use nfs-kernel-server instead, and the disk stopped responding within a few minutes of starting to access it. Up to that point the machine had had no disk problems, and IIRC it had had a couple of runs of about a month's uptime. SMART self-tests *claim* that there's nothing wrong with the disk, and the problem only seemed to happen in conjuction with NFS, so I decided to give up on NFS until I had more time to look into it. Even without using NFS however, the problem occurs occasionally, usually after about a fortnight of operation. (And to muddy things slightly, sometimes it can go for at least a few hours even with NFS). At first I tried making sure that it was adequately cooled, the cables were all firmly in, etc. I also set the jumper on the disk to limit it to 1.5gbps, having read about a couple of potential problems with 3gbps access using some controllers supported by sata_promise [2]. I've even moved the disk and the controller card into a new machine, to eliminate any other possible causes, so the problem must be either with the disk, the controller, some interaction between them, or a software issue. So, I'm at a loss now when it comes to what to do next. Might there be any way to re-enable the disk without rebooting? Does anybody have any suggestions what else I might try, or any idea why NFS seems to trigger the problem? To be honest, even if the answer is 'this is clearly a hardware problem. Buy a SATA controller that doesn't suck', then it would be helpful, because I'm still stuck deciding if it could be software or not. Thanks for your time, Aneurin Price [0] I believe it is a Barracuda ST3500630AS, but as it's currently inaccessible I can't be sure until I reboot.
