Hi, A customer of mine has had a crash due to powerfailure. Now the second disc of 2 raid-1 configs (md1 and md2) won't kick on. The /proc/mdstat says: Personalities : [raid0] [raid1] read_ahead 1024 sectors md0 : active raid0 sdb1[1] sda2[0] 1092224 blocks 32k chunks md1 : active raid1 sdb5[1] sda5[0] 3148608 blocks [2/1] [U_] md2 : active raid1 sdb6[1] sda6[0] 31848704 blocks [2/1] [U_] unused devices: <none> when he types 'raidhotadd /dev/md2 /dev/sdb6' it generates: "dev/md2: can not hot-add disk: disk busy" What should he do to get the second drive to sync again? kind regards, p.s. I am not subscribed to this list. Can you reply to my email address?
