Would that not imply an "unlock" command before you could run the array on the other host? Would that not then break the automatic fail-over you want, as no machine that died or hung would issue the unlock command, meaning that the fail-over node could not then use the disks It's an interesting idea, I just can't think of a way to make it work unattended It might be possible wrap the 'mdadm' binary with a script that "checks" (maybe via some deep check using ssh to execute remote commands, or just a ping) the hosts status and just prints a little table of host status that can only be avoided by passing a special --yes-i-know flag to the wrapper -Mike - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
