Hi
After a powercut I'm trying to mount an array and failing :(
teak:~# mdadm --assemble /dev/media --auto=p /dev/sd[bcdef]1
mdadm: /dev/media has been started with 5 drives.
Good
However:
teak:~# mount /media
mount: /dev/media1 is not a valid block device
teak:~# dd if=/dev/media1 of=/dev/null
dd: opening `/dev/media1': No such device or address
teak:~# dd if=/dev/media of=/dev/null
792442+0 records in
792441+0 records out
405729792 bytes transferred in 4.363571 seconds (92981135 bytes/sec)
(after ^C)
dmesg shows:
raid5: device sdb1 operational as raid disk 0
raid5: device sdf1 operational as raid disk 4
raid5: device sde1 operational as raid disk 3
raid5: device sdd1 operational as raid disk 2
raid5: device sdc1 operational as raid disk 1
raid5: allocated 5235kB for md_d127
raid5: raid level 5 set md_d127 active with 5 out of 5 devices, algorithm 2
RAID5 conf printout:
--- rd:5 wd:5 fd:0

disk 2, o:1, dev:sdd1

disk 4, o:1, dev:sdf1
md_d127: bitmap initialized from disk: read 1/1 pages, set 0 bits, status: 0
created bitmap (5 pages) for device md_d127
md_d127: unknown partition table
That last line looks odd...
It was created like so:
mdadm --create /dev/media --level=5 -n 5 -e1.2 --bitmap=internal
--name=media --auto=p /dev/sd[bcdef]1
and the xfs fstab entry is:
/dev/media1 /media xfs rw,noatime,logdev=/dev/media2 0 0
fdisk /dev/media
shows:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/media1 1 312536035 1250144138 83 Linux
/dev/media2 312536036 312560448 97652 da Non-FS data
cfdisk even gets the filesystem right...
Which is expected.
teak:~# ll /dev/media*
