Hi, yesterday evening I lost the ssh connection to my server, the last message was: > Message from syslogd@guest-195 at Jul 4 23:29:08 ... > kernel:Disabling IRQ #23 I could not renew the connection. After a reboot I found the following messages in /var/log/messages (attached below) The server contains 10 harddisks - 2 SAS drives connected as SAS drives - 6 SATA drives connected via SAS, and - 2 SATA drives connected via SATA Do these messages point to a single harddisk as the source of the problem? >> distribution Fedora 10 server (64bit) >> uname -a Linux guest-195.mpi-sb.mpg.de 2.6.27.24-170.2.68.fc10.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 20 22:47:23 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux >> cat /var/log/messages # at this point I lost the ssh connection to the server Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: irq 23: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: Pid: 0, comm: swapper Tainted: P 2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10.x86_64 #1 Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: Call Trace: Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: <IRQ> [<ffffffff81083523>] __report_bad_irq+0x38/0x7c Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: [<ffffffff8108376f>] note_interrupt+0x208/0x26d Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: [<ffffffff81083e9c>] handle_fasteoi_irq+0xbb/0xeb Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: [<ffffffff810130ce>] do_IRQ+0xf7/0x169 Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: [<ffffffff81010963>] ret_from_intr+0x0/0x2e Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: <EOI> [<ffffffff810173a9>] ? mwait_idle+0x3e/0x4f Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: [<ffffffff810173a0>] ? mwait_idle+0x35/0x4f Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: [<ffffffff8100f2a7>] ? cpu_idle+0xb2/0x10b Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: [<ffffffff8132e04b>] ? start_secondary+0x16e/0x173 Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: handlers: Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: [<ffffffff812256e5>] (ata_sff_interrupt+0x0/0xc2) Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: [<ffffffff8123c306>] (usb_hcd_irq+0x0/0xb3) Jul 4 23:29:08 guest-195 kernel: Disabling IRQ #23 Jul 4 23:29:39 guest-195 kernel: ata3.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen Jul 4 23:29:39 guest-195 kernel: ata3.00: cmd a0/00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 tag 0 Jul 4 23:29:39 guest-195 kernel: cdb 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Jul 4 23:29:39 guest-195 kernel: res 40/00:02:00:08:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) Jul 4 23:29:39 guest-195 kernel: ata3.00: status: { DRDY } Jul 4 23:29:39 guest-195 kernel: ata3: soft resetting link Jul 4 23:29:44 guest-195 kernel: ata3.01: qc timeout (cmd 0x27) Jul 4 23:29:44 guest-195 kernel: ata3.01: failed to read native max address (err_mask=0x4) Jul 4 23:29:44 guest-195 kernel: ata3.01: HPA support seems broken, skipping HPA handling Jul 4 23:29:44 guest-195 kernel: ata3.01: revalidation failed (errno=-5) Jul 4 23:29:44 guest-195 kernel: ata3: soft resetting link Jul 4 23:29:44 guest-195 kernel: ata3.00: configured for UDMA/100 Jul 4 23:29:44 guest-195 kernel: ata3.01: configured for UDMA/133 Jul 4 23:29:44 guest-195 kernel: ata3: EH complete # the log continues with the following message, repeated every 30 seconds...
