Hi, I originally had a 250G ide drive on my system. I added a second 250G and used raidreconf to go from non-raid to raid using "raidreconf -i /dev/hde1 -n /etc/raidtab -m /dev/md0". The conversion suceeded, mdadm reports that everything is ok, and the new raid0 works fine but df reports the wrong size. Is there any way to get df to report the correct size without wiping the data? Could I have done something with raidreconf differently to avoid this? Thanks, Mike My setup info: meatwad / # df -k Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/md0 241263968 222247508 6760876 98% /mnt <<< that should be ~500GB meatwad / # cat /etc/raidtab raiddev /dev/md0 raid-level 0 nr-raid-disks 2 chunk-size 32 persistent-superblock 1 nr-spare-disks 0 device /dev/hde1 raid-disk 0 device /dev/hdg1 raid-disk 1 meatwad / # mdadm --examine /dev/hde1 /dev/hde1: Magic : a92b4efc Version : 00.90.00 UUID : 12511967:044c5448:e985eb8e:860b9a60 Creation Time : Wed Jul 7 10:50:53 2004 Raid Level : raid0 Device Size : 245111616 (233.76 GiB 250.99 GB) Raid Devices : 2 Total Devices : 2 Preferred Minor : 0 Update Time : Thu Jul 8 03:50:30 2004 State : dirty, no-errors Active Devices : 2 Working Devices : 2 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Checksum : bfcfe958 - correct Events : 0.13 Chunk Size : 32K Number Major Minor RaidDevice State this 0 33 1 0 active sync /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 0 0 33 1 0 active sync /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 1 1 34 1 1 active sync /dev/ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1 meatwad / # mdadm --examine /dev/hdg1 /dev/hdg1: Magic : a92b4efc Version : 00.90.00 UUID : 12511967:044c5448:e985eb8e:860b9a60 Creation Time : Wed Jul 7 10:50:53 2004 Raid Level : raid0 Device Size : 245111616 (233.76 GiB 250.99 GB) Raid Devices : 2 Total Devices : 2 Preferred Minor : 0 Update Time : Thu Jul 8 03:50:30 2004 State : dirty, no-errors Active Devices : 2 Working Devices : 2 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Checksum : bfcfe95b - correct Events : 0.13 Chunk Size : 32K Number Major Minor RaidDevice State this 1 34 1 1 active sync /dev/ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1 0 0 33 1 0 active sync /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 1 1 34 1 1 active sync /dev/ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1 meatwad / # mdadm -D /dev/md0 /dev/md0: Version : 00.90.00 Creation Time : Wed Jul 7 10:50:53 2004 Raid Level : raid0 Array Size : 490223232 (467.51 GiB 501.99 GB) Raid Devices : 2 Total Devices : 2 Preferred Minor : 0 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Update Time : Thu Jul 8 03:50:30 2004 State : dirty, no-errors Active Devices : 2 Working Devices : 2 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Chunk Size : 32K Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 33 1 0 active sync /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 1 34 1 1 active sync /dev/ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1 UUID : 12511967:044c5448:e985eb8e:860b9a60 Events : 0.13 dmesg output from starting the array: md: bind<ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1,2> md: ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1's event counter: 0000000c md: ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1's event counter: 0000000c md0: max total readahead window set to 496k md0: 2 data-disks, max readahead per data-disk: 248k raid0: looking at ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 raid0: comparing ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1(245111616) with ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1(245111616) raid0: END raid0: ==> UNIQUE raid0: 1 zones raid0: looking at ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1 raid0: comparing ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1(245111616) with ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1(245111616) raid0: EQUAL raid0: FINAL 1 zones raid0: zone 0 raid0: checking ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 ... contained as device 0 (245111616) is smallest!. raid0: checking ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1 ... contained as device 1 raid0: zone->nb_dev: 2, size: 490223232 raid0: current zone offset: 245111616 raid0: done. raid0 : md_size is 490223232 blocks. raid0 : conf->smallest->size is 490223232 blocks. raid0 : nb_zone is 1. raid0 : Allocating 8 bytes for hash. md: updating md0 RAID superblock on device md: ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 [events: 0000000d]<6>(write) ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1's sb offset: 245111616 md: ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1 [events: 0000000d]<6>(write) ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1's sb offset: 245111616 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
