I'm using zfs on linux in a raidz configuration, I'm exporting this filesystem via NFS, I get freezesat times, while zpool status is not showing any errors I get the following in journalctl
Code:
Sep 02 18:30:27 pc.home kernel: ata4: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x90200 action 0xe frozen
Sep 02 18:30:27 pc.home kernel: ata4: irq_stat 0x00400000, PHY RDY changed
Sep 02 18:30:27 pc.home kernel: ata4: hard resetting link


and:
Code:
Sep 02 18:35:01 pc.home kernel: sd 3:0:0:0: [sdd] tag#1 UNKNOWN(0x2003) Result: hostbyte=0x00 driverbyte=0x08

Sep 02 18:35:01 pc.home kernel: blk_update_request: I/O error, dev sdd, sector 211088
Sep 02 18:35:01 pc.home kernel: ata4: EH complete

the problem stops showing up(although the pool is running in degraded mode) when one of the disks is diconnected, everything is pointing at this disk being the problem, how can I be 100% sure before I go back to the vendor asking for a replacement.

here's my smartctl:

I see no reallocated sectors, but I see a in the past in the airflow teampreature celsius, does that mean the disk had overheated at some point?

thanks

Adel Ahmed,

Use smartclt to run the long self test.

Your read error rates look pretty high for a disk that age. That could be a symptom of a failing drive head, or excessive vibrations throwing it off frequently enough to make the drive self-reset, or just a bad cable (not necessarily the external one though). It's important to know how fast the numbers are increasing too.

I've seen read error rate high with Seagate, seems to mean nothing. Is it a Seagate?

Adel Ahmed,

If thats correct, you stopped the test just before it firished. In the last 1% of the drive.
Code:
SMART Extended Self-test Log Version: 1 (1 sectors)
Num  Test_Description    Status                  Remaining  LifeTime(hours)  LBA_of_first_error
# 1  Extended offline    Interrupted (host reset)      00%     15490         -

It would be better if the completion message was not
Code:
Interrupted (host reset)
, as that casts doubt over the rest of the information.
Try the long test again, this time allow it to complete or report an error.

It really is a long test. The drive does something similar to reading the entire drive to /dev/null but no data is passed over the SATA interface.

Code:
ID# ATTRIBUTE_NAME          FLAG     VALUE WORST THRESH TYPE      UPDATED  WHEN_FAILED RAW_VALUE
  1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate     0x000f   117   099   006    Pre-fail  Always       -       143113960

Is nothing to worry about. Raw values are often packed bit fields, so the Raw_Read_Error_Rate might be say, just the top 8 bits of a 32 bit value.
Unless you know how the 32 bit value is packed, its not useful.

The VALUE WORST THRESH values are all normalised. A value of VALUE or WORST, that is less than or equal to THRESH, is a cause for concern.

If the long test passes and you still get IO errors, its the data path from the HDD to the CPU.
Replace the SATA data cable. That's easy.
Try another SATA port, if you have one.
