Hi everyone I setup a raid system using raictl
Snipp ------ START array # row, column, spare disks 1 3 1 START disks /dev/wd1a /dev/wd2a /dev/wd3a START spare /dev/wd4a START layout 32 1 1 5 START queue fifo 100 Snip ------ When it started up for the first time it wrote parity information which took quite a while. Everything worked fine I could acces the disk and copy files to the partition. Then I had to test the server before putting it into a production enviroment. So I switched of /dev/wd3a. The system halted itself when I did that... I started the system started and gave me the following error: raid0: Error re-writing parity. When I run the command: raidctl -s raid0 raid0 Components: /dev/wd1a: optimal /dev/wd2a: optimal /dev/wd3a: failed Spares: /dev/wd4a: spare Parity status: DIRTY Reconstruction is 100% complete. Parity Re-write is 100% complete. Copyback is 100% complete I have tried running the following command: raidctl -P raid0 raid0: Parity status: Dirty raid0: Initiating re-write of parity raid0: Error re-writing parity! I'm not sure what is going on here my kernel is standard except for raidframe support compiled in. I just can't seem to rebuild the array. Anybody run into this problem before? Any help would be appreciated. Kind Regards Julian
