[632714.975847] ata1.00: error: { IDNF }
IDNF - ID not found, usually these days means 'asked for a sector out of
range'
Justin, was this error provoked for example by you using a 'dd' command to
try and read stuff past the end of the disk? Because the md device driver
should not try and do something like that. The md device driver knows how
many LBAs are available on the disk and should never issue a read or write
past the end of the device.
Justin, I have the impression that this IDNF error was NOT due to you
issuing
dd commands or similar, but was part of 'normal' md operation.
When you say 'the errors occured' do you mean specifically the 'IDNF' errors?
Those are the onces I am talking about. I am NOT talking about other types
of errors like UNC or ABORT. I am ONLY talking about the IDNF errors.
It is easy to check if the IDNF errors are from the disk firmware or the
Linux kernel.
The kernel error message for IDNF should report the LBA which provoked that
IDNF error. Please compare that with the maximum LBA on the disk, which you
can get either via hdparm or smartctl -i (divide total capacity in bytes by
512).
If the LBA reported in the kernel error message is greater than the maximum
LBA on the disk, then the problem is in the Linux kernel. If the LBA
reported by the kernel is less than the maximum LBA on the disk, then the
problem is the disk firmware (or perhaps the disk has its capacity 'clipped'
with the 'Host Protected Area' feature set. But the Linux kernel should know
about this, so that would be a kernel bug again, not a disk firmware bug).
Going to plug-in one of the disks to a test system, I dare not use them in
a real host anymore.. ok, plugged in:
