Error reading block ... resulted in short read
Hello,
O/S = Suse Linux Every time I try to run fsck on my /dev/sdb1 raid array running ext3, I get these errors: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Error reading block 13137026 (Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while reading indirect blocks of inode 6554248. Ignore error<y>? yes Force rewrite<y>? yes Error reading block 13145561 (Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while reading indirect blocks of inode 6554425. Ignore error<y>? yes Force rewrite<y>? yes Error reading block 13162652 (Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while reading indirect blocks of inode 6554803. Ignore error<y>? yes Force rewrite<y>? yes Error reading block 13205308 (Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while reading indirect blocks of inode 6555707. Ignore error<y>? yes Force rewrite<y>? yes Error reading block 13222601 (Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while reading indirect blocks of inode 6556120. Ignore error<y>? yes Force rewrite<y>? yes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Could anyone explain exactly what a "short read" is, why fsck can't fix it, and what else I could do to resolve the problem short of scratching the volume and rebuilding it? I have looked at the partition table for this device in fdisk, and it appears normal. |
At this point I would install SMART on the system and check the drive, looks to me like there is a possibility the drive may be failing..
