md device failure (help!)

2009-07-03 Thread Shachar Tal
Hi all, my md array just crapped out on me! I'm partly responsible, since one of the device in the RAID5 array died some time ago and I neglected to replace it, but I don't think it's the whole problem now. When I assemble the array I get the following: r...@server:~# mdadm --assemble --verbose

[OT] Sparc CPU Throttling?

2004-02-19 Thread Shachar Tal
Hi fellas, I am suspecting that one of our Sun Blade 1000 (UltraSparc) is throttling its CPUs down during low load periods, much like more recent living-room-heater x86's. Is this technology even available on Sparcs? If so, how do I detect (and change) it? Thanks, Shachar.
