I have 6.1-RELEASE installed on a Supermicro SuperServer 6014P-TR
with Supermicro motherboard: Super X6DHP-TG http://supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon800/E7520/X6DHP-TG.cfm

I have four SATA drives attached to the internal backplane which uses
the following controller, I am Not using the onboard RAID features:

   Marvell 88SX6081 4-port SATA Controller with 3rd-Party Adaptec
   AIC-8110(4x drive), RAID 0, 1, JBOD support

The problem I am seeing occurs with the fourth drive, ad10, and appears
on all read/write operations:

ad10: WARNING - WRITE_DMA48 soft error (ECC corrected) LBA=293046767
kernel:ad10: WARNING - WRITE_DMA soft error (ECC corrected) LBA=12393823
kernel:ad10: WARNING - READ_DMA soft error (ECC corrected) LBA=12480567

This same warning message appears on 6.0-RELEASE and 6.1-STABLE

I have problems with a similar chassis w/ SCSI and bay 3 throwing spurious errors on a number of systems, so I think its just poor backplane design on SuperMicro's part. Try getting them to replace your backplane board.


I am going to RMA the backplane and its composite SATA cable. I'll see if that makes a difference. Obviously not ideal, but how serious do you think these ECC warnings are, data lose, system stability?

Thanks
