Running 'smart' on a disk in the jobd will tell you if the disk itself is showing signs of becoming faulty. There are also other possible causes, including controller failure and bad cables. I'd need more information about what exactly is failing, and how, before I can give you a better answer. > How does a raid that is created by mdadm failed? Usually because a drive failed. See my previous answer for why. > What is the process of the raid that is rebuilding. Not sure what you mean. We need a bunch more information about what is failing, logs showing what is happening, etc before we can really begin to offer any answers. -- Drew "Nothing in life is to be feared.
