Hello, Linux-Raid I have a RAID1-Array which consists of two equal partitions (hde4 and hdg4) on two drives. However, mdadm reports the array to consist of three devices, one of which is reported faulty: /dev/md4: Version : 00.90.00 Creation Time : Sun Feb 15 15:22:07 2004 Raid Level : raid1 Array Size : 188088896 (179.38 GiB 192.60 GB) Device Size : 188088896 (179.38 GiB 192.60 GB) Raid Devices : 2 Total Devices : 3 Preferred Minor : 4 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Update Time : Wed Mar 24 19:44:53 2004 State : dirty, no-errors Active Devices : 2 Working Devices : 2 Failed Devices : 1 Spare Devices : 0 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 33 4 0 active sync /dev/hde4 1 34 4 1 active sync /dev/hdg4 UUID : f3bf6c26:ec5523a9:b6a4f5ca:0f3713e6 Events : 0.63 How can I delete this nonexistent device from the array?
