Block Inconsistency

[Rhod]

ASE 12.0
RS 11.5.1 in Warm Standby Mode (4 databases)
Platform NT

Have 4 databases configured in WS.
After a DR test 3DBs were re-synch'd, the fourth wasn't involved.
During re-synch for 1 db only this error was in the log

E. 2003/06/29 21:18:55. ERROR #6025 DSI(158 SYBDR2.MFTLIVDB) - (6029)
Block consistency failed q 115:1, 0:1:0 218 contents q 114:1, 0:1:0
218. old=0.1
I. 2003/06/29 21:18:56. The DSI thread for database 'SYBDR2.MFTLIVDB' is
shutdown.

DBA at the time re-synch via dump & load and cleared the error.

The ASE & RS were cycled later that night and same error occured.
Attempting to via the inbound queue failed as it seems to think that qid
115 conatined data for qid 114.
Tried sysadmin purge_all_open but didn't seem to reduce queue size.

Performed re-synch and this appears to have cleared.

Search of google & sybase point to disk failure of Stable devices, however
no problems are encountered with other databases which are using the same
Stable Devices.

Welcome any input/thoughts

Rhod,

What do you mean by "

re-synch via dump & load and cleared the error". What did you dump and load?

Thanks for your interest, we've raised a case (20322568) with tech support.

Re-synch with dump & load - we clear all connections, repdefs, disable
repagents and then go through the process of creating an active & standby
configuration.

Both the stable devices and the databases are held on the same
RAID5 array, which is logically partitioned into 3 drives.
