There is no such thing like "the right data" from a block device's point of view. Both mirrors have "right data", since both got written independently. Thus, somebody has to choose one mirror being the "more right" one. This, of course, is in administrators hands. However, if somebody did so, exactly the sync you described above (union of the mapped data areas) must happen. regards Mario -- > As Luke Leighton said once on samba-ntdom, "now, what was that about > rebooting? that was so long ago, i had to look it up with man -k." - 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
