| |
Hi, I've just built an 800GB RAID5 array and built an ext3 file system on it; on trying to copy data off the 200GB RAID it is replacing I'm starting to see errors of the form:
kernel: EXT3-fs error (device md(9,2)): ext3_new_block: Allocating block in system zone - block = 140509185
and
kernel: EXT3-fs error (device md(9,2)): ext3_add_entry: bad entry in directory #70254593: rec_len %% 4 != 0 - offset=28, inode=23880564, rec_len=21587, name_len=76
and
kernel: raid5: multiple 1 requests for sector 281018464
This is on an x86 which has been running fine on the smaller raid for years (albeit Reiser); the array is built from 5 200GB Western Digi IDEs on a mix of promise and HPT controllers (there are no IDE errors visible). This is a straight 2.4.20 kernel.
The previous messages to the list with this form of error have suggested the problem is related to >2TB arrays; but this one is a relative tiny one.
Help greatly appreciated,
