Using my dowsing rod :-), it seems most likely that there is some (multiple, likely) hardware problem with some of the discs, especially given that there are 11 of them. I would check whether the arrays are running in damaged mode. Otherwise, SLES is a well supported product, so it is likely that the SUSE issue database would have some entry referring to sw issues with JFS on 64 bit in 2.6.5 so perhaps a search may be in order. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
