Greetings etc, In a system I am building I have setup two hard disks in a RAID 1 configuration (which has worked well so far) but I would now like to disable (possibly temporary, possibly permanently) the secondary hard disk from the array (so the RAID array will be an array of one). I have tried removing the secondary hdd from /etc/raidtab (and rebooting) but this has no effect (lsraid -R -p also does not show the changes I made to /etc/raidtab). I have also attempted to "raidstop" each array, but the majority of them are in use at runtime, and thus I can't unmount them. Can anybody offer some pointers?
Additionally I will still need both hdd's in the machine as I will be installing Gentoo on the secondary hdd, so simply removing the hdd is not an option. I suppose I could simply format the drive from a boot disk (and recreate the array when I want it back),but there has to be a nicer solution than this?
