Hi all,

Have a niggling problem on my home nas at the 
moment.

I rebuilt a raid 1 array a few nights ago, and 
haven't managed to get the disc's to resync since 
creating a ext3 fs on the array.

It would seem that as soon as they try to resync 
it crashes the server, totally. All networking 
stops, not responsive at the console.

If I keep the array up with a single disc (doesn't 
matter which) then all is fine.

There is another raid on the server using mdadm 
which runs fine.

Any ideas?

Background:
Server running FC8, up to date on testing tree, 
although same problem on stable.
The two disc's are on the tertiary ide (master, 
slave). Both maxtor 250gb.
Server, Dell Poweredge 600sc.

Thanks

From the Linux software raid howto: It is not recommended to 
run the same RAID1 array on the same IDE cable as 
master/slave. In fact the howto recommends 1 drive set as 
master on one cable only. One reason being if your master
drive goes down, then the slave may not operate correctly.

Kind Regards,

I was think it probably wasn't a good idea.

I changed over one of the disc's from the array, to sit on the secondary IDE. It seems to now die at 1% and reset the sync (not killing the machine this time however)

Below is what is cropping up in the /var/log/messages
