I have a problem with raid level 5. I am running linux kernel
2.2.12-20 (from Redhat 6.1), and the raidtools that shipped with
redhat. I have a machine that is totally flaking out. After a few
hours/days of running the machine I get the proceeding errors in the syslog.
Why am I getting this error? Why does the entire raid shut down? Why
doesn't the raid just go into degraded mode? Why is raid attempting
to write beyond the end of the device?
Please help.
Thanks
