Lucky for me there are two disks in RAID 1 so my data was not lost. The machine is "just" firewall, so I decided to play little bit with the bad hard disk, because there are no important data on it. Usually if you see errors like I mentioned above you replace disk without any questions, but I would like to "get" some outputs from diagnostic commands. So you can see what you can do in such case.
S.M.A.R.T checks
The drives are pretty old, so it's better to check if they support S.M.A.R.T. and if it's enabled:
gate:~ smartctl -i /dev/hda | grep 'SMART support'
SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.
SMART support is: Enabled
Let's check some information about the disk. You can see - it's quite old:
gate:~ smartctl --attributes /dev/hda

The basic S.M.A.R.T. test shows there is a problem on the disk:

Let's run the "short" test to do quick test of the disk:

Use badblock check as the last, because it's time consuming:
gate:~ time badblocks -s -v -o /tmp/bad_blocks /dev/hda
Checking blocks 0 to 19938239

6601592
8043696
8149160

badblocks and S.M.A.R.T show errors so it's pretty clear, that that disk needs to be replaced asap.
The commands I used before tested disk from "hardware" level. Because there is a RAID 1 in place it was nice opportunity to see what was happening on "software" level.
RAID checks
Here is the fdisk output for both disks:
gate:~ fdisk -l /dev/hda /dev/hdc

Before I began to do any high disk utilization operations, it was good to check used max speed for RAID check. If I had this value "higher" it could really slow down the server. 1 MB/s is enough for my old disks:
gate:~ echo 1000 > /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max
gate:~ cat /etc/sysctl.conf
...
# RAID rebuild min/max speed K/Sec per device
dev.raid.speed_limit_min = 100
dev.raid.speed_limit_max = 1000

To my surprise mdadm didn't find any errors :-(
Disk replacement
The disk needed to be replaced by the new one.
First I had to mark it as failed:
gate:~ mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --fail /dev/hda1
mdadm: set /dev/hda1 faulty in /dev/md0
gate:~ cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md1 : active raid1 hda2[0] hdc2[1]

md0 : active raid1 hda1[2](F) hdc1[1]
48064 blocks [2/1] [_U]
unused devices: <none>
Then I removed it from /dev/md0:
gate:~ mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --remove /dev/hda1
mdadm: hot removed /dev/hda1
Dmesg:
gate:~ dmesg
...
[142783.600283] raid1: Disk failure on hda1, disabling device.

[142905.796988] md: export_rdev(hda1)
...
I had to do the same procedure for md1:
gate:~ mdadm --manage /dev/md1 --fail /dev/hda2
mdadm: set /dev/hda2 faulty in /dev/md1
gate:~ mdadm --manage /dev/md1 --remove /dev/hda2
mdadm: hot removed /dev/hda2
Warning email from mdadm was sent:
Subject: Fail event on /dev/md0:gate
This is an automatically generated mail message from mdadm
running on gate
A Fail event had been detected on md device /dev/md0.
It could be related to component device /dev/hda1.
After disk change
New disk was installed, OS was up and running - it's time to check bad sectors on the new one:
gate:~ time badblocks -s -v -w -o /var/tmp/bad_blocks /dev/hda
I needed to have the same partitions like on the new "clean" disk like on the old one. The easiest way is to use sfdisk:
gate:~ sfdisk -d /dev/hdc | sfdisk --force /dev/hda
Added the partitions to the RAID:
gate:~ mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --add /dev/hda1
gate:~ mdadm --manage /dev/md1 --add /dev/hda2
The last step is installing the GRUB to MBR of the new disk. If you forgot about it, than I will not be able to boot from the "new" (hda) disk if "old" disk (hdc) fail.
gate:~ grub
root (hd0,0)
setup (hd0)
You find fine a lot of great tips regarding "bad sectors" on this page http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/badblockhowto.html.
