Greetings,

I just finished installing a machine that uses ReiserFS v3.6 
filesystems, one of which is on a RAID-5 device off of a 3Ware 7506 
controller.

After the build, a stress test was run that generates a lot of disk I/O, 
and I saw the following in dmesg:

vs-500: unknown uniqueness 1162690892

I did see something in the FAQ about requiring a reboot after changing 
partitions on a disk.  Unfortunately, I didn't see this until after the 
machine was built.  Could these errors be caused from a lack of a reboot 
between partitioning the disk and running mkreiserfs?

This is on a RedHat 7.3 system, using kernel 2.4.20.

I do not think so.

2.4.20 is quite old. Would it be possible to use newer kernel? 2.4.29,
namely?

At this point I cannot update the kernel.  I am using the 2.4.20 kernel 
due to limitations of some of the software that runs on this machine.

I am going to take another look at the hardware (make sure everything's 
cabled properly, etc), reinstall the OS, and remake the filesystems.

isn't it a vanilla 2.4.20 kernel from ftp.kernel.org?

there were reports that reiserfs does not work well in RH kernels.  stock
2.4.20 might work much better.  usually their kernels are patched a lot, some
kernel patch may cause reiserfs instability.

It's a 2.4.20 kernel from RedHat.  We're stuck using it because of 
dependancies of other software on the system, so we can't upgrade at the 
moment.

After recreating the reiserfs filesystems, making no other changes, I 
see zero errors in dmesg.

Machines have had stress testing performed, no problems so far.
