R610 SAS6IR with SSD RAID 1 file system Corruption

Hi all!  I worked on a recurring problem with some Dell R610 servers upgraded with the ruhnning controller SAS6IR a pair of Kingston SSD 256 GB in a RAID1 configuration.  I have 5 of these servers and are all identical and all have the same issue, this is why I'm leaning - point anyway - more than a question of settings rather than material because I swapped around the servers as well as SSDS them has tested in a R710 and the question arises in all R610s but the 710 using the same disks is not the issue.

Yes, on the real problem: corruption after being shut down the system of files and shut down by the operating system - not power failure or power button.

I tried to use Ubuntu Linux, RHEL7, Windows Server 2 k 8 and I saw the question in the O/Ss Linux but not Windows - same XenServer worked perfectly after a weekend 4 days, which lends to thinking me it is on Linux.  All appears well in the main bios and 6IR as much as all the disks/RAID volumes and run diagnostics on readers shows that they are all in good health.  I can install and reboot until the cows come home, home and there is no problem.  But when I shut down the system completely (this is a test environment and not yet in in production environment) using the option to stop the operating system and with elegance stops the system and turning off the power, but not to disconnect the supply plug/UPS when I turn back - usually after be closed from one day to the next, but also did the same an hour or similarly - messages just fine and starts the boot sequence.  The matrix RAID and Volume is found, and the operating system starts the startup.  It was then that the system will come to a prompt instead of the graphical interface or will stop with an error of file system corruption saying there are some deleted inodes.  I am trying to download the Dell Diagnostic DVD and let's see what he comes up with, but this issue has been frustrating me for almost 2 months now that I struggle to find what is the cause.

Any additional information required, please let me know.  Thank you in advance.

Scott

I discovered that it was indeed the RAID controllers in the R610.  The particular version of the PERC 6 was not compatible with the Ubuntu kernel and it managed the SSD correctly.  After their replacement by the PERC 6 / i with backup battery, all that survived a weekend stop.  Thanks for all the suggestions and help.

  • Help? With the help of file system Ext3 on key USB on Linux RT target

    We have been affected by problems with the SD cards and USB drives formatted in FAT32 on some devices, according to Linus RT of long-term monitoring (mainly the cRIO-9035). It seems that readers are vulnerable to fluctuations in current and unexpected reboots (which are inevitable on these sites). Write aborted operations make the damaged discs, thus sabotaging logging after reboot.

    We have identified two solutions; implement both gives the best redundancy:

  • How to write the xml content of a file (Blob data Type) with other columns in file system

    Team,
    We are currently working on oracle 11 g. Suppose that we consider the SCOTT. EMP table for our creation of the table.
    All existing columns of SCOTT along. EMP table allows to assume that this table has an additional column name emp_xml, which is of TYpe of BLOB data and it holds xml data.
    the size of the data blob for each record in this col is greater than 32 KB (normally about 1 GB), now I want to write the contents of this column along
    with enmae, empno, hiredate into an external file. Assume that if we are only to the BLOB column that is emp_xml then the code below works

    Start

    for c in (select emp_xml from your_table)

    loop

    dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file (emp_xml.getclobval (), 'YOUR_LOCATION', 'YOUR_DYNAMIC_FILENAME')

  • Installation of Dreamweaver 8 on Mac with case-sensitive file system

    I just installed Dreamweaver 8 on my mac with a case-sensitive file system, and it seems not quite spectactularly. Dreamweaver constantly alert poster boxes claimin to not be able to find .js files - the file names correspond to what is actually on the system, except that the case is not going in a few places.

    Can anyone offer suggestions or solutions of workaround other than having to rebuild my computer everything from scratch?

    Thank you

    I've tried that - there is much too much. I also tried to create symbolic links from the 'bad' file and folder to the 'right' file names and folder names, but that no longer works. I'll probably end up partitioning my drive and giving DW a small chest in. I hope that Adobe addresses this well. On a file system case sensitivity is something that web developers deal with on a regular basis and it seems odd that the editor may not actually run on one.

  • Bootsect.dat file is corrupt, NTLDR is missing/compressed on x 86 pc with Windows XP Home Edition Sp3 and Ie8

    I have a x 86 pc with Windows XP Home Edition SP3 and IE8.

    While preparing for a possible update for Win 7, I thought repartioning and "multiboot" my HARD drive.

    I tried to get WinXP operating as best I can.  I was also check out how to use the Windows Recovery Console to reinstall WinXP and transfer files to a clean reinstall.

    Found while searching "All boot paths" to Start\Run\msconfig\BOOT. INI that one boot path has been highlighted with errors indicating that "file is corrupt because playing a disc error has occurred" and that NTLDR is missing or corrupt.  In fact, it is blurred.  It points to "Recovery Console Microsoft Windows/cmdcon.  I've not used the Recovery Console, ever.

    I have a desktop Gateway 5310 S (detail) and no original XP disc, apparently.

    I have, but never used, a 4ea. set of recovery CD as of 12/05/05 I need to have created after purchase.

    I also had many, odd, problems that come and go, including worth displaying various websites, Yahoo Home Pages and E-mail that keep switch to compatibility mode or outright deletion.  The video and audio on Hulu and video-on-demand online services are always out of sync.  I have problems with editing posts on sites like this even if I can edit my profile fine pages.

    This particular set of problems started recently and very suddenly, from one day to the other.  It was after he worked actually pretty good for a change.

    I don't know how long the boot.ini file has been damaged, I actually discovered by chance.

    I can also not to reinstall some programs such as Family Tree Maker 2005 and 2008, when it was suggested to me by ancestry.com to uninstall/reinstall.

    I have the latest Java and Adobe Flash Player.  I've defragged and disc verified my discs.

    I used CCleaner to delete temp and unwanted files per day.  I ran Hitman Pro, MBAM, MBAR, MSE and SAS several times without detected virus or malware.

    And, as I mentioned above, I have problems with the editor of this site, right now.  Sometimes it just freezes and I have to leave to clear.  Other times it's duplicating entire sentences.  He also flip/flip flops between a Publisher full page and, as now, a half page window of the editor on the half left of the page.

    Suggestions from what people you can come would be greatly appreciated.  This gets really annoying.

    Thank you

    When you check the paths in the boot.ini file, and the recovery console is installed, you will always get an error message indicating that the startup path is not valid.

    If the recovery console is actually corrupted just to uninstall, you can reinstall or burn a cd with the recovery console.

    Here's how to make a bootable xp recovery console cd

    Courtesy of JoseIbarra

    You need start by booting in XP using a CD Recovery Console, you can do (no XP media required) and run a chkdsk with error correction command enough times until it is clean and if it does not, you can create a new boot.ini file (this is usually one of two things).

    Here's how:

    Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget what you have (no XP media required).

    This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    RC. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.thecomputerparamedic.com/?p=8    (courtesy of Daavee)

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient. If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

    ===============

    as for the other problems:

    did you use Registry cleaners?

    These can damage your system

    You seem to be free of infection, it would seem that a part of your process cleaning has removed a necessary file.

    ===============

    Checkdisk with parameter/r should be run. and run it again until there is no error.

  • Satellite C660D-178 file system fail to SSD using Linux

    Hello

    I have a reproduction of corruption of file system behavior when you use C660D with disk SSD Kingston SV100S2.

    The level of corruption varies from corruption of the file system individual nodes to complete data loss (no data can be read by testdisk).
    Problem always happen after the restart, not very often, about once in about 2 weeks.
    File system failures produce both after reboot normal and have to reboot (power button).
    Issue took place in 15 Fedora and Ubuntu 11.10 beta1 amd64 x86_64.

  • I ran CHKDSK, the report tells me I have problems with the file system, usn journal. ___

    I ran CHKDSK, the report tells me that I have problems with the sys file. I ran CHKDSK/F, it is said it fixed the problem but I ran CHKDSK again and it shows that the same listed the issues.

    Describe how you run chkdsk.

    That is what the report said: you have problems with the sys file?

    CHKDSK examines the disk space and use of the disk for the table of allocation of files (FAT) and NTFS file systems. CHKDSK provides information specific to each file system in a situation report. The report shows the errors found in the file system. If you run chkdsk without the /f on an active partition command line option, it can report errors because it cannot lock the drive. You should use chkdsk occasionally on each disk to check for errors.

    If you run chkdsk from a command prompt while Windows is running, it can report errors or it may not report errors - and it may report different
    Errors each time you run.  If this is the case, it could just be the way you run chkdsk.

    Here's how Microsoft explains this observation:

    "... CHKDSK may report that the disc is damaged, even when there is no
    current real corruption. This can happen if NTFS happens to modify
    areas of the disc on behalf of some programme activities that CHKDSK is
    review at the same time. To check a volume correctly, the volume
    must be in a static state, and the only way to ensure that the State is
    to lock the volume. CHKDSK only locks the volume when /F or/r (which
    involves the 'F') is specified. For example, you may need to run CHKDSK more than
    time so that it can complete all the steps in read-only mode. »

    If you run chkdsk from a command prompt, you are not the necessary static state and you can encounter errors "when no real corruption is present. This is how it works when you use this way.  Any changes made to a NTFS file system modifies the USN Journal.  If you are not in a static state, your USN change Journal probably all the time, so what you see (says something like that) can be quite normal.

    Two ways to ensure that you are in a static state is to run chkdsk from the Recovery Console or to schedule a chkdsk to run the next time that the system
    Restart by answering Yes to the question:

    Would you want to check this volume to be the next time the system restarts?

    If chkdsk reports errors when running in a static state, the errors should be investigated, resolved or explained.  This may take several
    chkdsk runs all of the issues and some problems cannot be resolved by chkdsk.

    If chkdsk runs the next time the system is restarted, the activity and the result will be displayed in the application event log.  Look in the Application log for
    Winlogon events and a source have the date and the duration nearby time chkdsk.

    It is in fact a chkdsk additional reading if you want to learn about it and it will explain everything you see and why your expectations exceed reality.

    Please vote my posts as helpful so I can get a lot of points. I'm saving for a pony!

  • I had problems with my gc, cleaned and he is now allowed outside my control file system system, that it will take place at 68% and stops running

    I had problems with my graphics card cleaned and it works well apart from the system of checking file system on C: turns 68% and stops. If I have to cancel the computer checking seems to work ok, or is it?

    I guess that Mark_S_Sloan is talking about chkdsk /r or running a disk check with fixed error on a restart. so I would say that what I used to say the performance is chkdsk:

    The chkdsk/r can take a long time to complete depending on the size of the volume, the amount of data on the volume, the speed of the system and what chkdsk is to do.  It take about 2 hours for chkdsk/r run on one of the volumes of my1TB (I'm a right that I rarely run).

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.  Give him a chance.

    @Imran M - Microsoft technical support engineer:

    Don't you know that the performance of the auditor of the filesystem (sfc/scannow) does not provide a percentage of completion?  Have you ever used it?

    He also really tell you anything about what he did, or could have done when it is executed even if she finds something to do.
