Hi, recently one of our two disks (set in RAID1) on our webhosting server got faulty. Strange was, that even that the other was healthy, reading some files crashed with IO errors. What I did was: 1) I unset linux-raid-autodetect flags on all partitions of the healthy disk 2) Turned off the computer 3) Unplugged the faulty disk 4) Turned on the computer and booted directly from healthy disk (/dev/hda, not /dev/md...) Now I'm managing to get a new disk instead of the faulty one. I would like to know what I'm supposed to do when I'll have it. I guess I should repartition the new disk the same way as the old one, set all those linux-raid-autodetect flags with fdisk. But how should I convince raidtools to recreate raid synchronizing files from the healthy one to the new one? Thanks for any help! I'm really scared :( Vladimir Trebicky --- Odchozí zpráva možná neobsahuje viry. Zkontrolováno antivirovým systémem AVG (http://www.grisoft.cz).
