Hi all,

Reporting back after changing the hangcheck timer to 180 secs and re-running checkarray. I got a number of rebuild events (see syslog excerpts below and attached), and I see no signs of the hangcheck issue in dmesg like I did last time.

I'm still getting the SMART OfflineUncorrectableSector and CurrentPendingSector errors, however. Should those go away if the rewrites were correctly carried out by the drive? Any thoughts on next steps to verify everything is ok?

OfflineUncorrectableSector unlikely can go away

CurrentPendingSector
https://kb.acronis.com/content/9133

If they've been re-written (so are no longer pending) then a SMART long or possibly offline test will make them go away. I use SMART long myself.


Thanks Brad. I'm running a long test now, but I believe I have the system set up to run long tests regularly, and the issue hasn't been fixed. Furthermore, strangely, the reallocated sector count still sits at 0 (see below). If these errors had been properly handled by the drive, shouldn't Reallocated_Sector_Ct sit at least at 8?

Nope. Your pending is still at 8, so you've got bad sectors in an area of the drive that hasn't been dealt with. What is "interesting" is that your SMART test results don't list the LBA of the first failure. Disappointing behaviour on the part of the disk. They are within the 1st 10% of the drive however, so it wouldn't surprise me if they were in an unused portion of the RAID superblock area.
