Well, I have several machines with same megaraid controller and I'm only seeing this on one of them thus far. The load on this one is not grossly different from that of others, so now I wonder why I only get it on this machine.

I just wanted to follow up and let the list know my instance of this error was being caused by faulty drives. If you get this message, I would be concerned. Backup your data and run every single drive connected to this controller via manufacturer's diagnostic full test. A single faulty drive in RAID setup can cause mediocre performance and this error to show up. -Simon _______________________________________________ freebsd-hardware@... mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hardware-unsubscribe@..." |
