| Yes, do you know what RAID card you are using? Can you view the BIOS for your RAID card and see if it is reporting any errors?

| It does indeed look like your disk count be dead (although it could always be controller or even kernel related).
Try looking at the S.M.A.R.T. logs too by downloading smartmontools.

| Just as an aside, I see that you have a swapper error too. Was your swap space not on a RAID-1 device?

| Definitely looks like sdb is dead. Contact your datacentre. What was your RAID config?

| That's not a S.M.A.R.T. log. I recommend downloading smartmontools and running something like smartctl --all /dev/sdb

| Hmm, that's a very strange response.
Did you try -T permissive as the command output suggests?
Is this disk something exotic like a SSD?

| Its sata drive
I have this
|
| Posted by mike86, 05-14-2012, 09:33 AM |
| do smartctl --all /dev/sdb -T permissive
|
| Posted by msmgaza, 05-14-2012, 09:35 AM |
| This is the result
|
| Posted by gigatux, 05-14-2012, 10:01 AM |
| Hmm. That's not good. It could simply be that your smartctl/kernel drivers/interface don't recognise your hard disk, or it's totally dead.
