Hi, I am not able to re write the parity for my Raid set.
# raidctl -Sv raid0 raid0 Status: Reconstruction is 100% complete. Parity Re-write is 100% complete. Copyback is 100% complete. raidctl: ioctl () failed # raidctl -sv raid0 raid0 Components: /dev/wd0d: failed /dev/wd1d: optimal No spares. /dev/wd0d status is: failed. Skipping label. Component label for /dev/wd1d: Row: 0, Column: 1, Num Rows: 1, Num Columns: 2 Version: 2, Serial Number: 200612010, Mod Counter: 2689 Clean: No, Status: 0 sectPerSU: 128, SUsPerPU: 1, SUsPerRU: 1 Queue size: 100, blocksize: 512, numBlocks: 231085824 RAID Level: 1 Autoconfig: Yes Root partition: Yes Last configured as: raid0 Parity status: DIRTY Reconstruction is 100% complete. Parity Re-write is 100% complete. Copyback is 100% complete. # The command #raidctl -P all says raid0: Parity status: DIRTY raid0: Initiating re-write of parity but then shows the error #raid0: Error re-writing parity! how can I get back the Raid Properly?
