Hi Guys,
I´m using an older Server with FreeBSD 6.2 als Fileserver in my home office. Now I made an upgrade using 4 SATA II disks connected to a promise TX4310 Raid controller. Defining a RAID5 a bios level, starting the server and building up the Raid at OS level: # atacontrol create RAID5 32 ad4 ad6 ad8 ad10 # bsdlable ... # newfs ... And now I have a functional Raid named ar0. At boot time the bios told me that even at this level the raid in initializing - world seemed to be ok. Now I tried to prove Raid function and disconnect one disk. Theoretical data is covered by the rest of 3 ... but after I get the system message that one disk has been disconnected the maschine stopps working. Told me: ar0 raid 5 degarded after a fw minutes no input is possibble. Even after reboot .... ar0: disk0 Ready ar0: disk1 Ready ar0: disk2 Ready ar0: disk3 down no device found ... end of work No single user mode or other starting option seemed to work. I have no chance to rebuild the raid via atacontrol. Any hints? Raid without reliability doesn´t make sense!
