Start of bittest from command line has initial errors HDIO_DRIVE_CMD

[Tim (PassMark)]

We can't seem to reproduce the behavior on CentOS 7 (using hdparm 9.43), could you please generate a debug log using the command line parameter '-d' and email it to us.

We are using a range of OS of CentOS 7.5 to 7.7

What version of CentOS are you using?
We'll see if we can reproduce it on a system here.

Thanks for the response. I am running the latest version. Is there a way i can change the parameter switches? or set debug mode on the bit_cmd_line_x64 ?

# md5sum bit_cmd_line_x64
b3335cad5d1752d029c47c01a5e47b79 bit_cmd_line_x64

I am running latest version of hdparm
# rpm -qa | grep hdparm
hdparm-9.43-5.el7.x86_64

Thanks.

We use whatever version is available on the system, we don't ship a compiled version with BurnInTest.

What version does the Linux version of bit_cmd_line_x64 use for hdparm?

hdparm -I /dev/sdc /dev/sdc: HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Input/output error

• This was fixed in hdparm-9.37.
• The latest hdparm from FC18 works as expected

Is this from the binary hdparm command from bit_cmd or usage of the tool by CentOS? it works fine after the initial inquiry.

[Tim (PassMark)]

This output is likely being caused by the 'hdparm' tool (eg hdparm -I /dev/sdb) which BurnInTest calls to gather system information, so it looks like one of the hard drives isn't responding very well when being queried for this information.

Hello,

Just curious why the bit_cmd keeps starting like this , but then it goes into the test successfully
