I have raid0-over-raid1 using four SCSI disks: md3 : active raid0 md/2[1] md/1[0] 71681536 blocks 128k chunks md1 : active raid1 scsi/host1/bus0/target1/lun0/part1[1] scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0/part1[0] 35840896 blocks [2/2] [UU] md2 : active raid1 scsi/host1/bus0/target3/lun0/part1[1] scsi/host1/bus0/target2/lun0/part1[0] 35840896 blocks [2/2] [UU] I cannot use mdadm to examine the underlying raid1 sets. When I use 'mdadm --examine /dev/md/1' and 'mdadm --examine /dev/md/2', I see the same UUID and a raid level 0. This is the correct information for md/3. 'mdadm --examing /dev/md/3' doesn't work. It says: mdadm: No super block found on /dev/md/3 (Expected magic a92b4efc, got 77315132). mdadm comes with so little documentation, I cannot determine if this is the expected behavior. -jwb - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
