Hi there,

I'm running Debian/GNU Linux (unstable) on a PC equipped with a Pentium III-450
(Katmai), 192 M of RAM, and a RAID (easyRAID II) with 165 GB hooked to an
Adaptec AIC-7881U SCSI host adapter. The kernel I'm using is 2.4.6 with XFS
patch "linux-2.4.6-xfs-07052001" applied.


Soon after I've written some gigs of data I'm seeing the following in
/var/log/messages:

Jul 31 14:06:43 server kernel: xfs_force_shutdown(sd(8,5),0x1) called from line
1013 of file xfs_trans.c. Return address = 0xcc8e71b3
Jul 31 14:06:43 server kernel: I/O Error Detected. Shutting down filesystem: sd
(8,5)
Jul 31 14:06:43 server kernel: Please umount the filesystem, and rectify the
problem(s)


Do you have any idea what could be causing this? Or any hints how to further
investigate the problem?

This could be a IO error on the device but since you are using raid that should not be a problem unless the driver is doing funky things. Which compiler did you use to compile the kernel?
I am not familiar with the easyraid II. Is that a IDE raid card?


If XFS detects an IO error (hardware or software error) it will shut down the fs to prevent further damage.

Cheers
