I have a particular hard drive in a RAID 1 mirror that gets failed out under heavy load, typically, when I run a full backup.
There is nothing wrong with the drive. Ok, it is getting one error when writing the superblock, but that's it. It's always this same disk and this same array that needs manually re-added every time I run the backup process.
Are there any settings that will make md
more tolerant of whatever is causing this drive to get failed when under load?
This is Linux software RAID on Debian.
UPDATE: As requested, DMSG
output at the time of failure:
