atacontrol and SATA RAID
Hi, I've a Intel SE7210TP1 motherboard with Adaptec HostRAID and I've created a RAID1 array with 2 SATA disks using the following command: atacontrol create RAID1 ad4 ad6 The system installed on /dev/ar0 just fine and I played a bit with atacontrol detaching and attaching the disks. Detaching ad6 worked without problems with the following commands: atacontrol detach 3 atacontrol attach 3 atacontrol rebuild 0 But when I tried to detach ad4 (after rebuilding array from previous detachment) I got an error saying the array was broken. Now when booting it shows this: ar0: 152627MB [19457/255/63] status: DEGRADED subdisks: disk0 READY on ad4 at ata2-master disk1 DOWN no device found for this disk but atacontrol list shows ad6 there. So my question is: what's the proper way of doing de attach/detach operation ? -- Giovanni P.

So my question is: what's the proper way of doing de attach/detach operation ? I did a fresh install then turned the machine off and removed on disk. It booted again just fine. Then I turned it off again and inserted the disk I had removed. Now it will panic: panic: softdep_setup_inomapdep: found inode cpuid = 0 boot() called on cpu#0 Uptime: 2s If I removed the disk and boot again it will work and show the following message: ar0: 152627MB [19457/255/63] status: DEGRADED subdisks: disk0 READY on ad4 at ata2-master disk1 DOWN no device found for this disk How can I replace a failed disk with this setup ? Given what I've read I'm not really using the controller's RAID support but only the RAID support present in the ata subsystem. Is that true ? In the BIOS I don't have any arrays.
