Re: How to replace ataraid disks?

I'm not sure what "ataraid" is. Are you using the dmraid utility? It creates devices in /dev/mapper for me. Also what kind of raid array is this? If it is a mirror then you should be able to replace the failing drive and go into the bios raid setup program and rebuild it with the new drive.

Hi all, I have a server with a Promise TX2000 controller; I use ataraid in linux 2.4.26, so my partitions are accessible under /dev/ataraid/d0pX. Now SMARTd is finding some errors on one of the disks, so I want to replace it, but... how does the raid restore work? If I halt the machine, replace the disk and reboot, will the array be put in sync? Or what should I do after repartitioning the disk?

Thanks in advance, ciao
