Help! RAID causing kernel panics

Help! My Xserve RAID seems to be behind a bunch of kernel panics on my server. Whenever I try to access the volume, I get a kernel panic stating "HFS: truncate file didn't". This happened yesterday too, and I spent 5 hours running disk utility on the volume, which came up clean, and it hasn't fixed the error. Do I need to delete the array and restore the data? I'd rather not... Any ideas are appreciated.
OS X Server 10.2.8, XServe dual 1GHZ g4, 1st gen XServe RAID.

HELP! New RAID causes Kernel Panics

Okay, I am pretty sure I did something stupid here, but I desparately need some help for the gurus.
I got the following to setup a RAID:
Rosewell R2 RAID/dual disk enclosure
2 WD Caviar 750 drives
I have:
Tempo SATA Express 34
MBP 2.33 GHz 2GB running Leopard
Here is what happened:
I put it all together and the MBP recognized each drive.
I went into the Dis Utility to use the RAID setup.
Set it to
Volume Format - Mac OS Extended (journaled)
RAID Type - Mirrored RAID Set
I dragged the two drives into the list and clicked "Create"
Then all heck broke loose.
I got a Kernel Panic as the grey curtain dropped.
I have tested the Express card separately with another eSATA and it works fine.
I have tested 1 of the two 750 drives in a different enclosure and I get the Kernal Panic. I still need to check the other drive and load a known good drive into the enclosure to test it, but I don't want to kill a good drive.
So I assume I did something really really stupid.... I usually read much more about these types of things before setting them up but I am traveling and brought this with me to work on as I traveled. Unfortunately, I have had somewhat limited access to the internet and been unable to find any discussions of a similar situation occurring.
PLEASE HELP or at least come up with some good explanations.
Thanks

I'm not familiar with RAID setups all that much (the only RAIDs I've ever set up have been my Drobo's, and those were zero-config), so excuse me if any of my questions or suggestions seem dumb.
Have you tried reformatting the drives individually then set the RAID up again (reformat in APM just to be safe)?
Instead of setting up the RAID in a normal session of OSX, how about booting into your install discs and do it from Disk Utility? (although you said you were traveling, so I don't know if you'd have those on hand - maybe a retail copy of Leopard?)
When I have drive problems, I usually follow this pattern:
1) Reformat and try again. If that fails, then
2) Reformat, this time writing the drive over with zeros (an option in Disk Utility, which I'm sure you're aware of). If that fails, then
3) Try doing the setup in a lower level setting (i.e. single user mode, safe mode, from the install discs, etc.), as it might be something in your setting that might be messing it up.
I'd also try the requisite stuff for system troubleshooting as well - run a Disk Repair and Permission Repair on your boot drive, and clean out caches and whatnot (Onyx is a good utility for this - http://www.titanium.free.fr/pgs/english.html).

RAID mirror with software utility caused kernel panic every time

Using disc utility to make a mirror of 2 drives, click create and i get kernel panic and have to power off machine. if i try to start the machine with either of the two disks in it (together or individually) i get same kernel panic and have to power off.
The disks are in an external storage array (sonnet d500). I have a second storage array with raided disks in and i have raided disk inside the mac too. these all work fine..
originally 2 weeks ago i had the 2 disks working in a group of 4 disks set as a mirror of 2 striped disks. One disk in this setup failed and with this config you can never 'recover'or rebuild it - you get a degraded mirror and you can backup the data, but you must completely rebuild the raid again as the mirror of stripes never lets you add a new disk in again.period. not good.
I replaced the failed disk and rebuilt the mirror of stripes. this lasted a day until a second disk failed (all 4 were bought at same time so i was kind of expecting that to happen once one failed).
i replaced the second faulty hdd and thought about my disk usage and decided i would not make another mirror of stripes and i would make 2 mirrors instead for safe-ish storage and then transfer data to a striped raid set for editing from instead of direct from the mirror of stripes volume.
i tried to delete the raid but got a kernel panic
if i started the machine with any of the 4 disks i would get a kernel panic.
i moved the disks one by one into an older G5 running Tiger and managed to erase the raid info on 2 of them. The two new ones had some strange raid info and the Tiger machien thought there was an extra disk in the machine and would not erase or partition or allow me to destroy the raid whatever i tried.
I will be moving these now into an old XP PC to try to erase the boot records etc and erase them to be able to use them again in either mac pro or G5. painful..
so.. i ended up with 2 erased drives and have 2 new drives with dodgy raid info that causes kernel panics on the leopard machine and wont go in the Tiger machine.
The two erased drives are what ive now been trying to use in the mac pro to create a mirror - this now caused kernel panics when creating the mirror to start with and when installed in the machine at all. so i will be erasing them again in the tiger machine soon (its busy erasing with zeros another new disk that i added to the Tiger machine 2 weeks ago which seems to have some fault when raided!!! but thats another story).
so.. is anyone else having problems with creating basic mirror in 10.5.4 or is it just me??
i have a sonnet tempo e4p card with 2 external sata disk enclosures, latest firmware for the e4p card. all other previously existing raid volumes are working fine. i have one set of 2 striped disks, one set of 3 striped disks and one set of 2 stripes which are mirrored - all happy and working fine. but i cant make a new mirror of 2 disks...
I phoned Apple support and they said all raid info was kept on the disk itself and nothing on the actual machine and suggested i take the machine to an apple care centre for some tlc (although its disk i am having a problem with). since all my other disk arrays work fine i don't really want to rebuild the whole machine from scratch if i can avoid it.
Any suggestions of what i can try ??

well it turns out the new disk i bought just werent any good. my g5 powermac raid mirror issue was related to one new disk with lots of bad blocks (speed tools showed that up) so i have learnt my lesson on cheap non raid disks for raid..
am waiting on a couple of new ultrastar enterprise disks to tuen up so i can go back to the macpro and try to add a mirror again.
i am still stuck wih several new disks that i cannot format now in the macpro on leopard or on the g5 powermac with tiger.
ive tried softraid and that cant do it, speedtools pcformat util cant do it, disk utility crashes when i try to eras them and diskutil from termianl starts then doenst get anywhere and my pc sata card doesnt work so my last resort pc option still doesnt help me clear the partition map on these drives - ones that diskutility on leopard made for me - and drives which still cause kernel panics on the macpro if i put them in it..
here is what diskutil says on my g5:
/dev/disk0

disk0 is the one with the bad partition info.
it thinks it has a double raid as the console shows on startup:
(both store45 and cache it thinks are on this disk - cache was my old mirror of stripes set on other machine, store45 was new name for my mirror, so seems like it hadnt deleted the original raid partition info before making new info which now kernel panics)
Jul 18 18:48:05 localhost kernel[0]: AppleRAID::degradeSet - starting the set "STORE45" (B9C48619-6B2C-4547-A01E-4864754EA7E2).

so currently i have 2 new 500gb disks which cant be partitioned back to anything at all on either machine. looks like i will have to buy a new pc to reformat them..
any suggestions of how to clear the partition map info and get them back to freespace ??

Battery Update Causing Kernel Panics?

It seems that ever since I installed the Battery Update it's been causing Kernel Panics on my MBP. Three since yesterday in fact. Has anyone else been experiencing this?
MacBook Pro 1.83 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.9) 1 GB RAM, 80 GB HDD, ATI Radeon X1600

Hmm I have seen multiple posts on the computer not booting the OS (gets to the grey apple with spinning gear screen) but so far I think you are the first I have seen reporting kernel panics.
Can you boot to the install cd? I'd try running the disk utility from the install disk and verify/repair permissions and verify the disk as well. (repair disk if verification fails)
Here is an article that may help ya:

Using 2 memory modules causes kernel panic

In early 2009 I upgraded my memory from 512 to 2 GB, 2 modules of 1GB each. This past January (just shy of 2 years later) I got a kernel panic. I tested running with a single module, and one module caused panic, the other was fine. Both slots function with the good module. So I got two new matched replacement chips from OWC, put them in and got kernel panics during the boot process. Yesterday I spent testing memory configurations and found this:
1. chip 1 alone runs fine and passes all Rember memory tests in slot 1.
2. chip 2 alone runs fine in slot 1 and 2, passes all memory tests in slot 2.
3. chips 1 and 2 together, in either slot, cause kernel panics before the OS is loaded.
Has anyone seen this problem? Will it go away if I use top of the line (Apple) memory chips?
When the kernel panics started back in January, an AppleCare advanced advisor said he had the same problem and he had to remove one module to stop the kernel panics. Running on 1GB doesn't work for me because I tend to max out the memory and programs like Mail, Safari, Photoshop, etc. become unreponsive all together.
thanks -

I have spent more time on the phone with OWC about this than I care to remember. Their latest request is that I use an eraser to clean the metal contacts on the chips; if that fails, I get to send the chips back. Whether I get a refund or yet another set of replacement chips, I don't know. They are not experts on Apple machines, that is clear.

Was solved after rebooting for the 3rd time... but seems scary as it was shown in on the screen direclty on booting... (normally you get the nice reboot interface).

PS Extended CS6 causing kernel panics

I've been getting one or two a week. Haven't figured out yet what triggers it, but it only happens in CS6. I did recently reinstall the entire OS, so that's clean. Here's the latest panic info the reboot generates to send to Apple. Doesn't mean anything to me, other than the panic notation near the top of the info tells you what it thinks happened.

Only OS bugs, driver bugs, or hardware problems can cause kernel panics.
Yes, that is normally the case. I brought this up here because while working in PS is the only time this happens. I know it doesn't make sense, but there it is.
Not sure why the crash report stated 10.8.0. It's incorrect on two counts. For one, I'm working in Snow Leopard, 10.6.8. I do have Mountain Lion installed on a separate drive for testing, but that already is at 10.8.2. Regardless, it's not the OS I was even in, so I don't know why it reported 10.8.0 as the kernel.
Anyway, I noticed (after posting this of course) that there was a 13.0.1 update for PS CS6. I applied that and we'll see how it goes from there as the update is noted as fixing a number of crashing problems.

Airport causing kernel panics and kp in safe boot.

Last week I got my first kernel panic in years. It happened while I was asleep and checking an extrenal drive for bad blocks with TechTool. It turns out that the drive indeed had bad blocks and found that the cpu was shut down when I awoke. I started up the computer and it wasn't able to stay on for more than 10 min max before the next kernel panic. I checked here for more advice on kernel panics and started to try to narrow the number of culprits. Everything was unplugged and still kp. Instaled a new drive with a week older system from Time Machine and still kp. Reset NVRAM and replaced pyhsical RAM and still kp. Removed the Airport Extreme card and still kp. Booted into Safe Mode after all of the previously mentioned and still kp. I'm now going to take the drive and swap it into another body that I have to see if the root is actually on the drive on the physical hardware of the cpu.
I was interested in this thread and read all of the links that jpl posted. Airport causing Kernel Panic (?) Jason then replied that it had been solved due to a "permissions problem" I wish he gave more info on what exactly he did to resolve the problem as it's been almost a week now without any work being done for me.
I've also noticed this very strange behavior that might shed some light onto the issue. When I open System Prefs and close the window there is a strange colored pattern that will always flash after the window has been closed. I tried to post it to my me page but for somereason it wouldn't play for me so there's that and the YouTube version too.
https://www.me.com/gallery/#100008/Prefs%20Screen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zrTt88YdBo
In addition when the computer has started up and the system loads. Checking Activity Monitor shows that there are 50 or more threads active for the the kernel_task. Inspecting this doesn't seem to show any useful information.
Finally here are a few of the recent crashes I hope that someone might be able to shed some light on this extremely frustrating problem for me.

My vision is pretty poor, still cant see it, but...
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

Scanner Causing Kernel Panics

I have an old Agfa SnapScan 1212u USB scanner and up until today it has worked fine. Then suddenly it started causing Kernal Panics. It happens about 30% of the time. It scans the first 10% then throws up the Kernel Panic message and I'm forced to restart. I have run the Disk Repair Utility, repaired permissions, reinstalled the Agfa Scanwise driver, deleted all scanner related preferences and disconnected all other USB devices but nothing seems to work. The only software update I've done recently is the August and Java Security updates. Could either of these things be the problem? This is the first time I've had Kernel Panics on my Mac Mini. I doubt it's caused by the ram. It has worked flawlessly since I put in the 1GB module in July.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers

Well, I downloaded Vuescan and set it up but now I have another problem. Vuescan constantly crashes. Sometimes it crashes when I'm changing settings and sometimes is crashes after a scan. I set the memory settings very high so it shouldn't be a memory issue. I've tried just about everything to get this scanner working with Vuescan. I even installed a fresh copy of Panther on my Firewire drive but it only reduced the crashes not eliminate them. I'd like to get Vuescan working because it seems to make better scans than Scanwise did. At least it doesn't cause Kernel Panics. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm beginning to think that it might be a hardware problem with the scanner.

Readynas duo mounted over ethernet causes kernel panics

I've found out what is causing kernel panics on my machines, but i'm not sure how to resolve it. I have a g4 laptop and a new mac mini, both mount the readynas via mount_afp using a LoginHook. When the laptop or the mini go to sleep, the ethernet connection is powered off and at some point the readynas goes to sleep as well. So, when the laptop/mini wake from sleep, they have trouble re-establishing the mount to the readynas (as it needs time to spin it's drives up) and then the laptop/mini kernel panic...shouldn't this really be just a lost connection message, rather than a full fledged panic!

This is where we have a difference of opinion...If i can mount an external box over ethernet/firewire/usb and it causes the machine to kernel panic, then the software is not robust enough to handle the exception cases. Running 10.4.x for years with the same external hardware never yielded such results.

External LaCie Multi Recorder causing kernel panics since reloading OS

I just replaced my main internal hd with a new 1TB WD Caviar Black. I migrated all of my user information from my old drive via Time Machine & all seemed well. Since I did a fresh, zero out data install of the OS on the new drive, I need to reinstall my programs. Some of my older programs are kept on DVD-RAM disks that I've had since my old G4. To access these files I use my LaCie Multi recorder which was working fine prior to the HD switch.
When I put my DVD-RAM disk into the drive it's now causing kernel panics.
Anyone know what could have caused this or how I might correct the problem?
Thanks.

Okay, it seems that I've got a bad disk. I connected the drive to my laptop & used another dvd & all worked as it should. Put my program back-up disk in & it caused a panic.
New question, is there any way to repair the disk?
I've got DiskWarrior & TechTool Deluxe but I'm not sure how I might go about the repair as the panic occurs while the drive is trying to access the disk.

Rt3062 causing kernel panics

Hi all,
I've got an rt3062 chipset wireless card and it's been causing kernel panics ever since the upgrade to linux-3.0.
I was using the driver and firmware supplied by ralink and compiling it as the rt3562sta driver and it used to work great but it doesnt seem to support anything higher than kernel 2.6.39.
I'm not exactly sure which error logs to post, so...
Anybody else having this issue? and maybe find a workaround?
Thanks

I am using the same combination, successfully, with kernel 3.0.7-1. I do not recall having to do anything special to get it to work.

ITunes causing kernel panics because I'm streaming to multiple Airplay Speakers?

Any idea what is causing kernel panics that seems to have started when I began streaming to multiple Airplay Speakers? iTunes is listed as the culprit in the crash report.

My question: is there a way to select multiple speakers from AppleTV for Airplay?
Unfortunately not.

Help with a Kernel Panic caused by NTFS filesystem

Hello All,
I need a little help trying to diagnose a reacurring kernel panic.
I originally thought it was being caused by Intego Virus Barrier, but that has been uninstalled for over a week now. On avergage, I get about 2 kernel panics a day. I have not been able to isolate why it panic's when it does. Looking at the Panic logs, I believe the issue to be with the Bootcamp partition, but before I go and reformat the drive, I wanted to check with the community to see if there was anything I can do. I have not launched into Bootcamp in probably over 2 months, but the panics started about 2 weeks ago.
I have performed the Extended Apple Hardware test several times and there seems to be no issue.
The consistant item in all the logs is
Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):
com.apple.filesystems.ntfs(3.4)@0x14da000->0x1539fff
Any insight is appreaciated.
Thanks,
-Ben
Partial Logs below. I can post the full if its helpfull to see the rest of the loaded extensions / USB devices.

Hi Hatter,
Thanks for the response. I actually did not intend to post this in the Windows Software Category. I'm not sure how it ended up there as I thought I was in the MacBookPro discussion area.
So, I am running Mac OS 10.6.7 and get these panics. I have neither VirusBarrier or Little Snitch installed.
The kernel extension com.apple.filesystems.ntfs is what I am assuming is the culprit as it is consistantly listed in the backtrace.
I have read both of the mentioned articles. I do not seem to get the Kernel Panics when booted in safe mode, but I assume that is because the com.apple.filesystems.ntfs is not loaded when in safe mode and the Boot Camp partition does not mount (and cannot be).
So if Apple Hardware Test shows the drive as being healthy. The panic also mentions the active thread as mds. So I'm guessing that Spotlight is trying to index the NTFS partition and something in the middle is getting angry and causing the panics. Without re-formatting, is there any way to re-install just the Bootcamp extenisions for Mac OS X?
Or am I off base here?

10.6.8 causes Kernel Panic on MacPro 3,1 - Help Please

Hi All,
Made the mistake of updating to 10.6.8 yesterday and now I'm stuck in safe mode as any other restart cause a Kernel Panic. Below is my log if anyone has any thoughts on fixing the non-sense I'd appreciate it.
thanks!

Get your files off the boot drive to a external drive.   Not to the Seagate drive.
Any files on the Seagate drive, copy them off as well.
Hold c and boot off the installer disk 10.6, reinstall OS X.
These kexts are a bit strange and might be causing your issue. 10.6.8 broke a lot of third party kexts.
