Subject: request help with RAID1 array that endlessly attempts to sync
Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2013 22:50:28 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131217065028.GC20941@nx5.priv> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1516 bytes --]
hi,
I have a RAID1 array (md1) with two partitions (/dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1).
Earlier today, I replaced /dev/sda because it had errors (reported by smartd/smartctl)
# mdadm /dev/md0 -f /dev/sda1 -r /dev/sda1
# mdadm /dev/md1 -f /dev/sda2 -r /dev/sda2
I replaced and formatted the drive and added it to the RAID1 arrays:
# mdadm /dev/md0 -a /dev/sda1
# mdadm /dev/md1 -a /dev/sda2
Everything looked great at first:
# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md0 : active raid1 sda1[0] sdb1[1]
521984 blocks [2/2] [UU]
md1 : active raid1 sda2[2] sdb2[1]
976237824 blocks [2/1] [_U]
[====>................] recovery = 22.4% (219600512/976237824) finish=131.5min speed=95860K/sec
unused devices: <none>
But the sync restarted w/o error.
So, I ran:
# smartctl -a /dev/sdb
... which returned 3 errors.
After the second time the sync restarted, smartctl reported 24 errors on /dev/sdb. It has restarted a few times since then, but smartctl reports the same number of errors (24).
I'm enclosing the output from 'smartctl -a /dev/sdb'.
I tried to run a short selftest, but aborted it after 10 minutes. I was concerned that I shouldn't run a selftest at the same time it's rebuilding.
For what it's worth, I can't pause the sync. The command:
# echo idle > /sys/block/md1/md/sync_action
... has apparently no effect.
Can anybody make a recommendation? I'd rather not reboot, but I have a planned outage scheduled Friday.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Julie
