dump errors / system halting

[Newbie_From_Hell]

Hi thanks for checking the UPS is actually not currently "managing" system shutdowns so it can't be that.

do the logs reflect a "crash" i.e. a oldschool bluescreen dump or simply the system stopping, as i said i need to get to the bottom of this as its getting crazy

regards

try changing the RAID controller and see if it still fails:
===
[ 97.362565] hdb: task_pio_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
[ 97.362576] hdb: task_pio_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
[ 97.362583] hdb: possibly failed opcode: 0xa1

just to confirm you would like me to migrate 18tb of storage to other controllers to see if it helps ?

any ideal how to go about that without having an identical box to use to host the data while i migrate it ?
