[cPanel smartcheck] Possible Hard Drive Failure Soon

[felipekk]

I got 2 emails from the Smartcheck:

Second email:

   S.M.A.R.T Errors on /dev/sdb
                From Command: /usr/sbin/smartctl -q errorsonly -H -l selftest -l error /dev/sdb
                ATA Error Count: 15 (device log contains only the most recent five errors)

                ----END /dev/sdb--

First email:

   S.M.A.R.T Errors on /dev/sdb
                From Command: /usr/sbin/smartctl -q errorsonly -H -l selftest -l error /dev/sdb
                ATA Error Count: 4
Error 4 occurred at disk power-on lifetime: 7178 hours (299 days + 2 hours)
Error 3 occurred at disk power-on lifetime: 7178 hours (299 days + 2 hours)
Error 2 occurred at disk power-on lifetime: 7087 hours (295 days + 7 hours)
Error 1 occurred at disk power-on lifetime: 7087 hours (295 days + 7 hours)
                ----END /dev/sdb--

I m not sure what this error means, should I replace the drive on this machine? Should I be worried?

Sorry to create a topic about this, but I couldn't find those errors...

Thank you

Hello

I recommend checking the following log files for any indication of a drive failure:

/var/log/messages
/var/log/dmesg

Thank you.
