Thanks, > > Josep Pujadas There are a few reports of this on the freebsd-stable mailing list in March and I'm also experiencing the same problem, so far none of the suggested resolutions has helped for me. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2008-March/thread.html I've got the issue on a custom built box with amd64 + 7.0 + gmirror and I've got a Proliant ML110 G5 running 6.3 I'd like to upgrade to 7.0 but too scared to do so until this issue appears to have been identified and fixed. Copying in freebsd-stable as it's not just a problem on Proliant. -Gianni From owner-freebsd-proliant@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Apr 18 09:37:45 2008 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A1DFD1065673 for ; Fri, 18 Apr 2008 09:37:45 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jdc@parodius.com) Received: from mx01.sc1.parodius.com (mx01.sc1.parodius.com [72.20.106.3]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 780FE8FC24 for ; Fri, 18 Apr 2008 09:37:45 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jdc@parodius.com) Received: by mx01.sc1.parodius.com (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 2906C1CC033; Fri, 18 Apr 2008 02:20:34 -0700 (PDT) Date: Fri, 18 Apr 2008 02:20:34 -0700 From: Jeremy Chadwick To: Gianni Message-ID: <20080418092034.GA34069@eos.sc1.parodius.com> References: <20080417171439.M22551@bellera.cat> <20080417172729.M94092@bellera.cat> <83ABD599-A699-4CD8-AF1F-D42357C7D9B9@yahoo.it> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <83ABD599-A699-4CD8-AF1F-D42357C7D9B9@yahoo.it> User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.17 (2007-11-01) Cc: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org, freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org Subject: Re: gmirror problem with HP Proliant ML110 G5 X-BeenThere: freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: "Technical discussion of FreeBSD on HP ProLiant server platforms."

First disk comes with the machine and the second in a separate box. But I have many machines like this using gmirror and no problem up to now. > This is very likely **not** the cause of the DMA errors you're > seeing, but I did want to take a moment to state that mix-matching > drives with different semantics in a mirror is somewhat risky. No other solution. If one disk fails and I have to change it I'm quite sure I will not find the same model.

Many thanks! Interesting help. I didn't know about smartmontools. I installed it and I made a long test for my disk. It seems ok! I will try to change the cable, but it is a new cable, as the disk. I had other problems with this Proliant: * NIC card was not detected. I had to patch some source files and recompile the kernel. * reboot doesn't work. It is necessary to charge ipmi kernel module and use watchdog. Similar problem with shutdown (impossible to power off). * I had also some DMA errors with the CD when installing FreeBSD 7.0. I burned a new one and I worked. But now I'm wondering if it was a similar problem that I have now.

IBM's OEMed LSI SAS RAID-controllers (in the blades) likes to have identical drives with identical firmware-revisions, before it even lets you create a RAID1. That's why you (supposedly) pay a premium for IBM and HP: they are supposed to stock enough spare parts so that they can still supply you with them in a couple of years down the road. > >> This is very likely **not** the cause of the DMA errors you're >> seeing, but I did want to take a moment to state that mix-matching >> drives with different semantics in a mirror is somewhat risky. > > No other solution.

If not, I'd not bother with their stuff and just order Tyan-barebones right away. IMO, the low-end HP stuff is not worth the trouble - anything below DL360 is so cheap that I'd have problems calling it a "server" actually. I think I'd rather buy a DL380 from ebay - because those are rock- solid and use decent hardware. The rest are just "Me too"-products so that the roadmap starts at a lower entry price (somebody obviously got annoyed of all the "HP"="high-price" babble) cheers, Rainer -- Rainer Duffner CISSP, LPI, MCSE rainer@ultra-secure.de From owner-freebsd-proliant@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Apr 19 12:31:16 2008 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5E43E1065670 for ; Sat, 19 Apr 2008 12:31:16 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from josep@bellera.cat) Received: from mail.bellera.cat (174.Red-80-38-146.staticIP.rima-tde.net [80.38.146.174]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 040958FC2E for ; Sat, 19 Apr 2008 12:31:13 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from josep@bellera.cat) Received: from localhost (unknown [127.0.0.1]) by mail.bellera.cat (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3AE6B409DE7 for ; Sat, 19 Apr 2008 14:31:12 +0200 (CEST) Received: from mail.bellera.cat ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (mail.bellera.cat [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id 56345-02 for ; Sat, 19 Apr 2008 14:31:11 +0200 (CEST) Received: from mail.bellera.cat (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by mail.bellera.cat (Postfix) with ESMTP id E41A7409C75 for ; Sat, 19 Apr 2008 14:31:10 +0200 (CEST) From: "Josep Pujadas i Jubany" To: freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org Date: Sat, 19 Apr 2008 14:31:10 +0200 Message-Id: <20080419120849.M54812@bellera.cat> In-Reply-To: References: <20080417171439.M22551@bellera.cat> <20080417172729.M94092@bellera.cat> <83ABD599-A699-4CD8-AF1F-D42357C7D9B9@yahoo.it> <20080418092034.GA34069@eos.sc1.parodius.com> <20080418175001.M1439@bellera.cat> X-Mailer: Open WebMail 2.32 20040525 X-OriginatingIP: 83.56.83.116 (super) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Subject: Re: gmirror problem with HP Proliant ML110 G5 X-BeenThere: freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: "Technical discussion of FreeBSD on HP ProLiant server platforms."

But it seems like ML110 G5 and FreeBSD 7.0 can't work without problems. On the other hand we bought also one HP Proliant ML310 G5. FreeBSD 7.0 is working without problems in this machine. The disk controller seems to be the same if I use: # pciconf -lv Regards, Josep Pujadas
