Hi all,
Not 100% sure if this is the correct list - or if there is a seperate
hwraid list.
I seem to be getting some random filesystem corruption on an IBM server
that I use as a Xen Dom0.

I'm currently running kernel 3.11.4 and before the filesystem corruption
seems to happen, I get a load of these:
aac_write: aac_fib_send failed with status: -12
While this is going on, random things seem to fail. Eventually, I'll
reboot the system and lots of tools will segfault - tracing it back
leads to libraries that seem to have been corrupted.
I can boot the system from rescue media, reinstall all the corrupted
libraries / binaries and the system runs fine again for another few
months before it happens again.
arcconf shows:

Nothing obvious to linux-raid I'd say. It sounds like you have a
hardware problem that either causes memory corruption which is then
written out to disk, or the RAID controller you are using is defective
and corrupts the data during parity calculations or something like that.
It could also be a driver problem.
You can try searching the linux-kernel or linux-scsi mailing list
archives to see if you find any similar reports.
Good luck!
Jes
