Hi I have a Linux-Software-Raid5 consisting of three partitions (hda2, hde2 and hdf2). After a failure of hdf I replaced the disk and added hdf2 into the raid again. During the resynchronization process hda broke down. I am not completely shure how much of the synchronization was already done, but I think it was quite at the end, because the gzipped dd-image of hdf2 and hde2 have very similar sizes. mdadm shows hde2 as a active, clean disk within the raid and hdf2 as a clean spare disk. In the Software-Raid-Howto it was stated that rewriting the superblocks (I suspect hdf2 to clean active) could be a possibility to regain some data from the Raid. How is this possible with mdadm? Or is there some other tool for manipulation the superblocks? Many thanks in advance Hendrik Naummann PS. Please add a CC hn75@xxxxxx because up to now I am no subscriber to this list. -- PGP ID 65C92061
