Promise RAID / ata problem
Greetings, I have a Promise Fasttrak TX4200 running a single mirrored array under 5.5. Everything's been great for nearly a year until a recent reboot. It appears that the two disk mirrored array is coming up as two arrays with a single disk attached: Before: kernel: acd0: CDRW SONY CD-RW CRX140E/1.0n at ata1-slave UDMA33 kernel: ad6: 305245MB Seagate ST3320620AS 3.AAC at ata3-master SATA150 kernel: ad10: 305245MB Seagate ST3320620AS 3.AAC at ata5-master SATA150 kernel: ar0: 305175MB Promise Fasttrak RAID1 status: READY kernel: ar0: disk0 READY (master) using ad10 at ata5-master kernel: ar0: disk1 READY (mirror) using ad6 at ata3-master After: kernel: acd0: CDRW SONY CD-RW CRX140E/1.0n at ata1-slave UDMA33 kernel: ad6: 305245MB Seagate ST3320620AS 3.AAC at ata3-master SATA150 kernel: ad10: 305245MB Seagate ST3320620AS 3.AAC at ata5-master SATA150 kernel: ar0: disk0 DOWN no device found for this subdisk kernel: ar0: disk1 READY (mirror) using ad6 at ata3-master kernel: ar1: 305175MB Promise Fasttrak RAID1 status: DEGRADED kernel: ar1: disk0 READY (master) using ad10 at ata5-master kernel: ar1: disk1 DOWN no device found for this subdisk # atacontrol status ar0 ar0: ATA RAID1 subdisks: DOWN ad6 status: DEGRADED # atacontrol status ar1 ar1: ATA RAID1 subdisks: ad10 DOWN status: DEGRADED Nothing's was changed on the machine. I'm looking for any ideas on the best way to re-establish the single mirrored array.

Re: Promise RAID / ata problem
The array was created on the Promise card. If there is a bad disk, any ideas on why FreeBSD would report two arrays with each disk appearing as READY on one of either of them? kernel: ar0: disk1 READY (mirror) using ad6 at ata3-master kernel: ar1: disk0 READY (master) using ad10 at ata5-master Thanks for the responses, On 7/16/07, Derek Ragona [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: At 06:45 AM 7/16/2007, Derek Holden wrote: You didn't say how you created the array, in the Promise BIOS or in software under FreeBSD. If you created the array in the promise BIOS, check the array in the BIOS first. -Derek ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
