Hello everyone, I recently set up a 6 drive SATA raidz2. Whenever I try to use the array, the dmesg fills up with warnings that WRITE_DMA must be retried (repeatedly) As soon as I remove the load, everything runs fine.

Is this a known issue? How can I make this machine stable? Is there any more information I can provide to aid debugging? Thanks so very much, Steven SchlanskerReceived on Tue Oct 02 2007 - 06:32:23 UTC
