Good Morning!
My team and I are trying to troubleshoot a setup that we have. We have 2x 60 Drive Bay Units using 4x LSI 9305-16i HBA's in each. In the bays are 14TB Seagate SAS Drives that are a mix of X14 and X16. This is powered by a X11SPL motherboard with a Xeon Gold 6230R and 256 GB of RAM. Each unit has a Fiber card with 2 connections on it. One on each connected to the main network and the other port connects one to the other via a TwinAX cable. This serves as the link used for replication between the two.
We've had nothing but issues with this since getting it installed. Constant alerts saying the SMART status could not be read which I think is eventually turning around and kicking the drives from the pool and pulling in our spares. I am baby sitting these units and doing restarts at least twice a week.
Any suggestions appreciated.
