I noticed some error's on one of the raid disks in the servers /var/log/warn file:

This is the original problem: the hard disk has one unreadable sector, detected by SMART. You can use smartctl to learn more about it. It is possible for the hardware to remap that sector; this is triggered by a write to it, but meanwhile the raid has redirected that sector to another mirror.
Btw: The disk is only a couple of months in operation so still under waranty.
I would run a full disk diagnostic using smartctl.
You mean: smartctl -t long /dev/sdb ? I already did some "smartctl -t select,n-m" tests on the offending ranges, but this found no errors. I will run the long test tonight when the server is less busy... Met vriendelijke groet / Best regards, Wilfred van Velzen -- SERCOM Regeltechniek b.v.
