Subject: Huge mdadm resync problem.
Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2005 13:08:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cv219o$ose$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)
This is really wierd problem with mdadm.
I currently have 8 Maxtor 200gb disks.
They are connected like this
hdb hdc hdd = onboard ide
hde hdf hdg hdh = Promise ata133 card
hdk = Promise ata 133 card.
Hardware is a P4 2.8ghz with 2gb of ram and a MSI NEO 2 mobo.
Problem is that te resync is really slow and when it's done it just loops
and the box craches.
Here are some info.
Currently i'm testing a resync with a non HT/SMP config and noapic just to
check that is no irq routing crap. (failed before though)

(The resync speed is always somewhere between 500K to 3000K/s) should be
10000K/s ;-)
This is the kernelog. it's just a lil grab in it since this list goes on
untill i reboot the box. (its freezed).
This is what i get when sync is finiched and it should markt the array good.

I've also tried to have 4 disks on each promise card with same result. (if
having apic i get alot of cpu apic error 60)
i have checked all disks with smarttool and also benchmarked them. Each disk
gets about (hdparm) -T = 1800mb/s and -t 60mb/s so i doubt that
theres actually a broken disk.
i'm running mdadm 1.7.0
This is toally bugging me out.
Help is really really apricated.
