On a recent reboot of my NV+, the chassis stopped at Booting...Found Bad Disk. When I boot it up in Tech Support Mode, I am able to use RAIDar to return Debug Code 50178. Can anyone provide a list of...
If you telnet in on the default port 23, you can look at the output of
# dmesg
and also run get_ata_errors on each of the disks
# get_ata_errors /dev/hdc
# get_ata_errors /dev/hde
# get_ata_errors /dev/hdg
# get_ata_errors /dev/hdi
If that doesn't find the problem disk then the process to check is a bit more involved.
ATA errors can be a good indicator of disk failure but there are other SMART errors that can point to it as well.
Unfortunately smartctl isn't in the tech support mode environment on the V1.
Note if you are using X-RAID on the V1 then one disk is the dedicated parity disk and meant to have no partition table on it.
