Keep losing RAID device

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a redhat 9 server with 6 drives, four of which are 160GB drives in a
RAID 5 config. Each time I reboot I loose one of the raid devices. However,
I can reinsert the drive without problem and it is synced again. However, as
it takes nearly four hours to resync, this is a pain. Any ideas why the
drive is being rejected on boot? I don't see any problems with the drive
otherwise and I run smartd to monitor all the drives.

[root@munster root]# dmesg|grep hdg
