I have a freebsd 6.1 system with a gmirror raid 1 which is degraded. Originally I had /dev/ad4 & /dev/ad6, but I'm getting a degraded status and log messages reporting dergraded status and uncorrectable block for ad4. Obviously I need to remove the device and get it replaced and then insert back into the mirror. However, this is a remote machine and I need to get the right disk fixed. Is there a way I can get the colocation engineer to replace the right disk? I guess I need to do 1) figure out what kind of disk this is and 2) figure out some information to allow them to identify. I looked at the smartctl output and see this /dev/ad4 Device Model: WDC WD1600JS-22MHB0 Serial Number: WD-WCANM4438410 /dev/ad6 Device Model: WDC WD1600JS-22MHB0 Serial Number: WD-WCANM4434657 is this sufficient to enable a data centre engineer to fix my problem? -- Robin Becker
