Dear linux-raid mailing list, I have a RAID0 array of four 3TB disks that failed on the "third" disk. I am aware of the non-redundancy of RAID0 but I would like to recover the filenames from that RAID0. If I could recover some data it would be a bonus. Below you'll find the outputs of the following commands mdadm --examine /dev/sd[abcd]1 fdisk -l where sda1, sdb1, sdc1 and sdd1 should be the 4 RAID devices. What could be my next step? I thank you for your time Michel Dubois ====================== mdadm --examine /dev/sd[abcd]1 /dev/sda1: Magic : a92b4efc Version : 00.90.00 UUID : 7d247a6e:7b5d46c8:f52d9c89:db304b21 Creation Time : Mon Apr 23 19:55:36 2012 Raid Level : raid1 Used Dev Size : 20980800 (20.01 GiB 21.48 GB) Array Size : 20980800 (20.01 GiB 21.48 GB) Raid Devices : 4 Total Devices : 3 Preferred Minor : 0 Update Time : Mon Jun 27 21:12:23 2016 State : clean Active Devices : 3 Working Devices : 3 Failed Devices : 1 Spare Devices : 0 Checksum : 1a57db60 - correct Events : 164275 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State this 0 8 1 0 active sync /dev/sda1 0 0 8 1 0 active sync /dev/sda1 1 1 8 17 1 active sync /dev/sdb1 2 2 0 0 2 faulty removed 3 3 8 33 3 active sync /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdb1: Magic : a92b4efc Version : 00.90.00 UUID : 7d247a6e:7b5d46c8:f52d9c89:db304b21 Creation Time : Mon Apr 23 19:55:36 2012 Raid Level : raid1 Used Dev Size : 20980800 (20.01 GiB 21.48 GB) Array Size : 20980800 (20.01 GiB 21.48 GB) Raid Devices : 4 Total Devices : 3 Preferred Minor : 0 Update Time : Mon Jun 27 21:12:23 2016 State : clean Active Devices : 3 Working Devices : 3 Failed Devices : 1 Spare Devices : 0 Checksum : 1a57db72 - correct Events : 164275 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State this 1 8 17 1 active sync /dev/sdb1 0 0 8 1 0 active sync /dev/sda1 1 1 8 17 1 active sync /dev/sdb1 2 2 0 0 2 faulty removed 3 3 8 33 3 active sync /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdc1: Magic : a92b4efc Version : 00.90.00 UUID : 7d247a6e:7b5d46c8:f52d9c89:db304b21 Creation Time : Mon Apr 23 19:55:36 2012 Raid Level : raid1 Used Dev Size : 20980800 (20.01 GiB 21.48 GB) Array Size : 20980800 (20.01 GiB 21.48 GB) Raid Devices : 4 Total Devices : 3 Preferred Minor : 0 Update Time : Mon Jun 27 21:12:23 2016 State : clean Active Devices : 3 Working Devices : 3 Failed Devices : 1 Spare Devices : 0 Checksum : 1a57db86 - correct Events : 164275 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State this 3 8 33 3 active sync /dev/sdc1 0 0 8 1 0 active sync /dev/sda1 1 1 8 17 1 active sync /dev/sdb1 2 2 0 0 2 faulty removed 3 3 8 33 3 active sync /dev/sdc1 ====================== fdisk -l WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sda'!
