Subject: sector I/O error cause disk to be "faulty" in raid5
Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2011 21:28:22 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTikpcH=navhOAFA2Jw+CT+rQfpOwcg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi, everybody:
In current raid5 implementation, if a r/w error occured at some
specific sectors on a disk, the disk will be labeled as "faulty".
Here, I want to say in most cases, this is failure indication of those
sectors not the whole disk. Should we make some changes to be more
reasonable?
