<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hello,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">We are running a gentoo server cluster each of them has an external raid, having this setup</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Infotrend Raid5 ->LSI Raid Controller (mptscsih) -> drbd -> lvm -> xfs.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">What happend: one drive of one node's Raid set failed, strange enough since nothing should have happend here. In the raid's log was a timeout message.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The syslog came up with these messages:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Oct 11 17:01:41 sowe1 kernel: xfs_force_shutdown(dm-0,0x8) called from line 1091 of file fs/xfs/xfs_trans.c. Return address = 0xc01ffc6b</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Oct 11 17:01:41 sowe1 nfsd[9447]: non-standard errno: 990 (Unknown error 990)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Oct 11 17:01:41 sowe1 kernel: Filesystem "dm-0": Corruption of in-memory data detected. Shutting down filesystem: dm-0</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Oct 11 17:01:41 sowe1 kernel: Please umount the filesystem, and rectify the problem(s)</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Due to heartbeat the other node took over but there happend the same. After the disk was replaced everything was fine again.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Unfortunaltely there are no more error messages since the lower layer don't come up in the syslog.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Has somebody any idea?</FONT>
