Hi Phil,
This is a problem you haven't solved yet, I think. The raid array
should have fixed this bad sector for you without kicking the drive out.
The scenario is common with "green" drives and/or consumer-grade
drives in general.
i investigated some time and now i am a bit confused.
All my 5 WD Red drives have ERC enables (7sec)
The kernel timeout is set to 30sec (/sys/block/sdb/device/timeout)
on all devices.
Unfortunately i haven't any backup of the dmesg output, but i can remeber i
got something like:
"failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED status: { DRDY ERR } error: { UNC }".
This shows up several times until it ends with showing me the sector which
causes the problem.
My raid is still up, but as you mentioned i would like some kind of self
repair if a sector is unreadable instead throwing the disk out of the array.
Here is the samrtctl of one drive that fails.
Do you have any idea if i missing some settings etc?
Interesting. I use the WD Red drives, too, and recommend them. Your
drive's smartctl report is clean as far as wear & tear is concerned.
That suggests a hardware problem elsewhere in your system. Bad cable,
perhaps, or a failing power supply.
Beyond that, I can only recommend regular "check" scrubs, with "repair"
scrubs only when mismatches are discovered.
Phil
