iostat -1 tels me that all four disk are continuously reading at a pace od 60MBps. And once every couple of seconds, four block are written.
Even when nothing happens on the box, top gives: 447 root 20 0 0 0 0 R 36.3 0.0 2:59.07 md127_raid10 4526 root 20 0 0 0 0 D 12.2 0.0 1:08.64 md127_resync
Should i be worried, or just leave the system at rest for a while ;-)
Your logs, etc. are consistent with a raid resync. A resync is pretty common so in and of itself nothing is wrong. A resync should be caused by an uncontrolled shutdown, on reboot the array has to be verified. If that was the tirgger, great. Also, a resync can be run via cron every once in a while to scan for bad media blocks. If that is the trigger, maybe you should move it to the middle of the night so it won't bother you in the future. Both of the above are good things. A resync can be caused because a disk is coming and going from the SATA bus. That is a bad thing. If this might be the cause, look thru the logs for that.
