That sounds like the typical S.M.A.R.T. alert from the BIOS. Not
something from the kernel. If it was the kernel, I'd like to know more
about it.
The systems I support professionally do try to warn
the admins, but it
seems that frequently no notice is taken until the level of redundancy
is exceeded at which time the issue becomes more difficult to ignore,
and then begins the waling and gnashing of teeth......
Yep. I suspect many, if not most, of us have been in that teeth
gnashing situation.
