Hi,
on a server one disk had a "medium error" and the RAID1 (2.2.14-B1)
disabled one of the mirrors. It looks like this:
md0 : active raid1 sdb5[1] sda5[0](F) 4739072 blocks [2/1] [_U]
If I reboot now, how will the system react? Will it recognize the
failed partition or (worst case) will it try to overwrite the data on
sdb5 with sda5?
BTW, what's the easiest way to replace the failed disk? Will something
like "dd /dev/sda /dev/sdb count=1" and "raidhotadd /dev/md0 /dev/sdb5"
work? (assuming the old sdb becomes sda after the replacement)
Thanks,
Jochen
