RN31600 froze 9.64% into a scrub, system crashed.

My RN316000 runningfireware 6.9.3 mysteriously crashed last night at 2am.This machine has been very stable till last night.

 

Had to power cycle to get going. No disk errors reported, though before I power cycled the machine, the 3rd drive light was flashing a steady, rythmic flash.making me wonder if that drive had failed. Yet, after power cycle all is good.

 

I have saved the logs hoping someone can help identify the issue, as I can't see anything in the general logs to explain this.

      You should check the smart stats (disk_info.log is one of several places where they are stored).

       

      Of course system.log and kernel.log are worth a look.

        I failed to mention that I have checked all the logs, I can see no indication of any SMART errors or other errors. Last message was at 10:37am. Then it just hung.

         

        It's not a disk error from everything I can see.
