 |
|
Hi Folks,
IDE Disk0 ( seagate ST320420A) on Sun ultra 5 is downed.
Error Message
1) Bios level ; boot disk0
; short disk read
; The file just loaded does not appear to be executable
2) When boot cdrom -sw
# fsck /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0
Warning: uncorrectable data error: block 1a00980
disk not responding to selection
3) Also tried
# fsck -o b=32 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0
- same message as above -
4) Trying to mount disk
# mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 /mnt
I/O error
cannot mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0
Greatly appreciate if someone had tried other methods and manage to
mount the disk.
This is desperate situation.
Hoping for a MIRACLE ???
Thanks/Best regards |

Can format see the disk? |
If so, you might be very lucky and be able to run a surface analysis and
repair the block.
The disk would appear to be doomed.

Hi Ian,
Able to use format to see disk.
Please explain what is the next step....
Use command "analyze" or "repair" ?
Which command did you used successfully ?
Thanks/Regards

Try "analyze", the basic read test should find the bad block and if you |
are lucky, remap it.
If this works, backup and get rid of the disk.

There's no low-level format capability or block repair on IDE disks like
there is on SCSI or FC-AL.
Pretty much if an IDE drive is dying you should replace it.

As it is a Seagate I would pull it out of the Ultra 5, connect it to
an x86 PC and run Seagate's Seatools diagnostic program on it. It
should either remap bad sectors or tell you it is beyond hope.

I would give Seatools one chance to repair a drive (post warranty). If
that fails or more bad sectors appear later it is rubbish bin time. |
