I am trying to setup RAID 1 array on two SCSI disks on a 2.6.0-test9 kernel but I am hitting the following: vortex:~# mkraid /dev/md0 handling MD device /dev/md0 analyzing super-block disk 0: /dev/hda2, 35077927kB, raid superblock at 35077824kB disk 1: /dev/hdc2, 35077927kB, raid superblock at 35077824kB md: bind<hda2> md: could not lock hdc2. md: error, md_import_device() returned -16 mkraid: aborted. (In addition to the above messages, see the syslog and /proc/mdstat as well for potential clues.) -16 is EBUSY, which is unepexted since nothing else is using that disk. At this stage /proc/mdstat contains: Personalities : [raid1] md0 : inactive hda2[0] 35077824 blocks unused devices: <none> Wichert. -- Wichert Akkerman <wichert@wiggy.net> It is simple to make things. http://www.wiggy.net/ It is hard to make things simple. - 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
