Smartmontools
From Finninday
The server recently froze and then refused to boot after several attempts. At one point, it froze during LILO at the point of "LIL". I was convinced that I had a hard disk failure and bought a new drive. When I tried to boot after getting back from the store, the server came up.
Now I'm afraid to reboot since I'm sure it will fail at the next power cycle. My goal is to get as much of a backup as I possibly can without a reboot, and maybe even without unmounting the filesystem.
I've got snapshots of the important things and now it is time to get serious.
smartctl
I installed smartmontools and got this report from the suspect drive:

Selective self-test flags (0x0):
After scanning selected spans, do NOT read-scan remainder of disk.
If Selective self-test is pending on power-up, resume after 0 minute delay.
Odd, the disk that I don't suspect to be bad is the one with errors. But my suspicion is confirmed by the amount of time that it takes the two drives to run the short self-test. The suspected bad disk (sda) seems to take about 5 minutes to run the self test which should complete in 1 minute. The suspected good disk (sdb) completes the self-test in under a minute. But both complete with no errors.
