Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Our previously stable system has started crashing once a day for the last 5 days at approximately the same time of day. We're running 2.1.5R with an Adaptec 2940 controller. We've had no problems with this system until this last week. In looking at our logfiles we found some disk errors (listed below), but I'm not totally sure what they mean. We ran a disk check last night but it came up clean, and the system crashed again this morning between 7am and 8am. I've tried to go over everything looking for a pattern of something that occurs during taht time period, but it is a real low activity period for us. Is the drive just dying and we should RMA it, or is there something else we should try? Thanks for any insight you can provide.
