Hi, I finally turned on Smartd on one of my servers (don't ask me why it wasn't on earlier), and I've been receiving messages like the following every night. Is this bad? Is this a sign that one (or both) of my disks is (are) dying and need to be replaced? Could this be related to why when the machine is under heavy load that ksoftirqd/1 starts spinning and taking up lots of CPU? This is my mythtv backend server, so it can have heavy disk I/O when recording multiple HDTV streams simultaneously (upwards of 40Mbps at times). -derek --------------------- Smartd Begin ------------------------ /dev/sda [SAT] : Prefailure: Raw_Read_Error_Rate (1) changed to 113, Usage: Airflow_Temperature_Cel (190) changed to 68, 67, 66, Usage: Hardware_ECC_Recovered (195) changed to 34, /dev/sdb [SAT] : Prefailure: Raw_Read_Error_Rate (1) changed to 105, 106, 107, 108, 107, 108, 112, 111, 110, 111, 110, 111, 108, 111, 108, 107, 106, 107, 106, 105, 106, 109, 108, 106, 107, Usage: Airflow_Temperature_Cel (190) changed to 63, 64, 63, 64, 63, 64, 63, Usage: Hardware_ECC_Recovered (195) changed to 66, 65, 64, 63, 62, 61, 62, 63, 64, 63, 62, 59, 60, 61, 62, 66, 65, 64, 65, 64, 63, 64, 63, 64, 63, 60, 61, /dev/sda [SAT] : started scheduled Short self-test 1 Time(s) /dev/sdb [SAT] : started scheduled Short self-test 1 Time(s) **Unmatched Entries** Device: /dev/sda [SAT], previous self-test completed without error Device: /dev/sdb [SAT], previous self-test completed without error ---------------------- Smartd End ------------------------- -- Derek Atkins, SB '93 MIT EE, SM '95 MIT Media Laboratory Member, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) URL: http://web.mit.edu/warlord/ PP-ASEL-IA N1NWH warlord at MIT.EDU PGP key available
