sector related (the ones you are seeing are). The codes to watch for are 801, 901,
803, and 20 (sometimes). These typically indicate that there is a larger issue
and/or that the predictive failure algorithms have found issues.
For now, what you are seeing is probably nothing, just watch the error counts per
drive for 6A0/820 errors, 0x689 Disk reconstructed
0x820 Soft media Error. This disk CRU has reported a media defect that was
successfully cleared by the SP
0x684 Parity sector reconstructed. The hardware reconstructed a parity sector that
had a checksum or write stamp error
0x689 Sector reconstructed. On a read from a RAID 1 mirrored pair, a corrupted
sector was reconstructed
, I would usually suggest that you work with EMC to copy out the disk to Hot Spare
and replace it. Doing a preemptive copy to hot spare is actually better than a
fail to hot spare and typically takes less time because it does not need to do a
full rebuild.
EMC has a theashold that they look for - x number of soft media errors in x number
of days and you replace the disk.
