I just found out that smartd is reporting errors for one of
my samsung disks on my 3ware 9000 controller.
smartd gives the following message:
Subject: SMART error (OfflineUncorrectableSector) detected on host:
paragon.slim
This email was generated by the smartd daemon running on:
=================
host name: paragon.slim
DNS domain: slim
NIS domain: (none)
The following warning/error was logged by the smartd daemon:
Device: /dev/twa0 [3ware_disk_00], 1 Offline uncorrectable sectors
For details see host's SYSLOG (default: /var/log/messages).
You can also use the smartctl utility for further investigation.
No additional email messages about this problem will be sent.
=========
A smartctl -a /dev/twa0 -d 3ware,0 shows that I indeed have one
uncorrectable sector for the first disk:
198 Offline_Uncorrectable 0x0030 100 100 011 Old_age
Offline - 1
Should I be worried at this point? Or does it only mean that one sector
is unreadable and now replaced with a space sector?
