We're running 2.4.20, we've come across a situation where the raid and overlying LVM seems to be stuck. No I/O is occuring, processes trying to access to raid or overlying volumes hang and can't be terminated. What we'd like to do is to force the raid volume to terminate and sync its disks and superblocks, so that the raid volume is or thinks it is consistant. The overlying JFS will clean up when it restarts, but we don't want to wait 3 days for the RAID to finish recomputing parity (these are some really large arrays). ----- Stephen C.
