Hello,
I'm running several 3-mirror-RAID1s in degraded mode (2 out of 3
mirrors operational) on a 2.4.27 (Debian's kernel-source-2.4.27).
The machine crashed sometimes in the past and I was always
wondering why the mirrors got not resynched after startup.
I always did compare the mirrors and they had only 4 different
octets near the end of the devices which I consider as normal
superblock differences. Therefore, I assumed the resync not
happening intentional.
However, I had a crash yesterday with no resync happenig again
but comparing the mirrors showed up some more differences than
just the 4 at the end. So I'm wondering if the missing resync
is *really* intentional.
Is there perhaps some bug that denies a resync on a degraded
RAID1 even if there is more than one mirror operational?
As I said - I'm running 2.4.27, so I have none of the new 2.6
features like superblocks marked clean while runtime and things
like that.
regards
Mario
