I've run the hardware tests, & there is a problem with the second
controller (hpt370), controlling hde, & hdg. I have changed hdg disk to hdc
controller, & no problem, so I need to sort this out.
I have a raidtab, but I am not sure if chunk size is correct. Is there a
way to verify this, or can I do multiple mkraid -f (with failed disk),
until data is readable?
Many thanks,
Mike Parsons
