One of my HDs in one of my servers seems to have packed in. I'm not sure yet if the BIOS picks it up yet, will do a reboot soon, but the disks definitely off-line. Would there be anything written to any of the system logs that I could check?

His servers are all Gentoo, which is why it's in *nix :p
If you've got SMART enabled, messages normally go to syslog if it's been set up. Same applies to RAID (do you use mdadm?). If it wasn't set up though, it's like saying 'who deleted this file' after the event, so your luck probably varies.
Depends on the brand of server/RAID device etc, but does it have an event log in the BIOS? Mine logs critical faults there, I would assume a disk borking is one of them :)
If smartd is running then yes, you'll probably find some entries.
Worth checking smartctl --all /dev/sdX
When you say offline, has it vanished from /dev ?
OK rebooted, when it tried to mount the disk it said it coudnt find a valid partition table. Checked /var/log/messages and it is riddled with errors:
fdisk wasnt even listing it before the reboot but It shows it now, albeit after a 10s pause when it gets to hdf, and it logged thisCode:Jul 15 09:17:08 roberts hdf: status error: status=0x00 { }

Temps look a bit high?
Ben
This is a bit wierd, it just mounted fine there.
/dev/hda though I think is the real problem, system drive, so I think that could be causing the problems?
What are normal hd / mobo temps?Code:roberts# smartctl -a /dev/hda

Things seem to be running fine just now touch wood. Im a bit worried about the errors logged in the smart from hda right enough, but as its a 4 yr old maxtor I guess thats to be expected. Ive backed up everything off the system drive and made a stage 4, so it should be trivial to rebuild if/when hda packs in. Im not sure what caused the errors with hdf, but Ill keep an eye on it.
Thanks for all the replies today.
hmm so I try to login today and cant. Try to see whats up and see this
http://www.peninsulafm.com/ts.png

Looks bricked.
Run fsck as it asks, least you have ipkvm to reinstall gentoo :)
EDIT: ^ The :) is in sympathy.
Second looking at that it might be failing and dropping into maintenance mode because of hdf. I'd suggest getting your remote hands to remove that disk and boot it up and see how it is.
I did recall earlier though you had issues with hda too, think it might not be a good disk time for you ahead..
hda is a 250gb 5yr old maxtor rubbish, which has probably been powered on 24/7 the whole 5 years so its not suprising really, I guess it probably could do with a rebuild. The hdf on the other hand is a fairly new seagate 500gb, still under warranty though according to the site.
