Any suggestions? I just dealt with a situation that sounds similar. I have an x86 box with a Promise SATA card with 2 drives in a RAID1 that had been running fairly well for several months. Then it suddenly froze up (no reboot, nothing written to the console). After a power cycle the system froze during fsck. In single user mode I was able to get it mounted readonly without fsck, and could read some files, but before too long it would freeze again. I pulled one of the drives and rebooted. Same behavior. Then I pulled that drive and put the other one back. Fsck completed and it now works fine (aside from no mirroring going on anymore of course). Short version: though it sure seems like one of the drives had gone bad, the Promise card didn't notice. It may say the array is READY you shouldn't trust it. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

On 12/23/05, Georg Auernhammer [EMAIL PROTECTED] But it shouldnt freeze. Its a RAID 10, or do you think there are more than 1 disks broken? I know it shouldn't freeze, but in my case I had a bad drive and as far as the Promise controller was concerned, the drive was good. Through trial and error I figured out which drive it was (not too hard in my case since there were only 2 drives) and replaced it. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
