I have a 5 disk raid 5 array that has a couple issues. First I can't start the array because it complains about a bad superblock. Secondly, one of the drives had a problem with losing its interrupt, and that caused the system to hang a couple times. I have tested all the drives using seatools (I have 5 * 200GB ATA drives) and they all report no problems. If I ask mdadm for detail on the array, it tells me that the array is active, but degraded (/dev/hdh1 is removed). I try adding the drive back into the array, and it says it is rebuilding. However, even after 12 hours it still says that. If i reboot, it just kicks the drive out of the array again. I could probably find room for the data elsewhere, and rebuild the array; however I need to get at the actual data for that. Does anyone have any suggestions? - 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
