I have a problem with a software RAID-1 implementation on the Linux 2.6.9 kernel using mdadm. The mdadm version is 1.12.0 and when I use yum with Centos 4.4, it appears to be updated for this distro. The array in question showed as being degraded (I think that was the term it used). I have had this happen before on rare occasions where the drive is not actually bad, but the software thinks it is. I did some testing on the drive and turns out it was fine. Therefore, I ran the mdadm command to add the drive back to the array.
Now, when I look at /proc/mdstat it shows that the array is recovering, however when it hits 100 percent, it starts all over again. How can I break out of this loop? I have already rebooted and that didn't help. I can't remove a drive from the array as it says it is busy. The drives in question are partitioned as Linux raid autodetect. This particular array is mounted as /. Someone ask in another group if I was using watch to watch the /proc/mdstat file and I am not. Any other ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
