That looks about right. There may be more error messages in your system
logs (e.g., /var/log/messages, dmesg), which might tell you more about
the nature of the failure.

The linux RAID wiki is often a good (though sometimes dated) resource.

If you wish to attempt a hot swap, make *sure* you pull the correct
device! If you're not sure, or not sure your system even supports it,
it's safer to power down to do the swap. You should verify which drive
has failed before shutting down, though this will be less catastrophic
if you pick the wrong one.
As long as you are careful, reconstructing a degraded RAID is usually
pretty straightforward.
