SATA RAID problems

[Vladimir Terziev]

	Hi hackers,

	i have an Intel Core 2 server with on-board pseudo hardware SATA RAID -- Intel MatrixRAID. The RAID itself is configured in RAID1. The server is running FreeBSD 6.2-Release/AMD64.

	Since several days i have being found the follwoing messages in the system log:

	DOH! ata_alloc_request failed!
	FAILURE - out of memory in ata_raid_init_request
	g_vfs_done():ar0s1a[WRITE(offset=5587025920, length=16384)]error = 5
	DOH! ata_alloc_composite failed!

	The messages appear in the system log at one and the same time -- as a result of execution of one (no idea which one exactly) of the cron-jobs in /etc/periodic/daily .

	The atacontrol utility reports the RAID1 itself is in good status.

	Is my RAID controller going away ?

	Thanks in advance!
