[Bug 634797] Re: RAID arrays don't initialise properly on startup
I've found out a lot more about this problem. The above, attached mdadm.conf is that after running mkconf to regenerate the conf file. Really, though, mdadm should do this by itself when you create an array. The situation is much better with the ARRAY definition in the mdadm.conf file, however, palimpsest still isn't picking up all the devices. According to Edit Components there is only the middle disk, disk 1, as part of the array. Funnily enough, though, palimpsest now reports that it's 2tb, running properly, and I can also mount and use it, though I'm afraid that if I write anything the array will go out of sync. -- RAID arrays don't initialise properly on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/634797 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The screenshot above this comment shows the (still broken) effect of palimpsest, even when an array definition is in mdadm.conf, generated by /usr/share/mdadm/mkconf /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf. Please note that this doesn't appear to be a kernel problem, as this occurs on kernels 2.6.35-13 to 2.6.35-22 as well as 2.6.36 from the kernel PPA. -- RAID arrays don't initialise properly on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/634797 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 634797] Re: RAID arrays don't initialise properly on startup
I've changed the mdadm.conf file to have a manual definition of the array including the exact device names of the three member disks, however palimpsest still exhibits this problem where only one disk shows as a component. Of course, the array still mounts fine, but I am afraid of array desynchronisation if only one disk is being used.

[Bug 634797] Re: RAID arrays don't initialise properly on startup
@Delan Azabani, can you please attach the initramfs in /boot corresponding to the kernel that you boot in. Most likely your initramfs is not getting updated with the array definition. Also can you attach the output of /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf? and the output of /usr/share/mdadm/mkconf? ** Changed in: mdadm (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- RAID arrays don't initialise properly on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/634797 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
