Hi all, i have a little trouble with a software raid1 array. i built it with opensuse10.0.
Now one disks left the array giving me the (F) of failure for one partition. here is the cat /proc/mdstat: Personalities : [raid1] md1 : active raid1 sda3[0] 129017920 blocks [2/1] [U_] md0 : active raid1 sdb1[2](F) sda1[0] 26217984 blocks [2/1] [U_] I ma quite far from this server location, so i need to know: how much fair is to assume disks is not broker and just use 'badblocks -f'? and if i want to replace it which is the easiest way ? i partition here the new disk (maybe with fdisk, but do not know the way to have the disk raid formatted with id=fd), replace the old one, and then use raidhotadd, or, if the new disk will get anyway the /dev/sdb identifier, the kernel will do it for me at boot time.
