Hi all,
I have a RAID6 array and I wondering about care and feeding instructions
:-)
Here is what I currently do:
- daily incremental and weekly full backups to a separate machine
- run smartd tests (short once a day, long once a week)
- check the raid for bad blocks every week
What else can I do make sure the array keeps humming? Thanks in advance!

What about bitmaps? Nobody has mentioned them. It is my understanding that
you just turn them on with "mdadm /dev/mdX -b internal". Any caveats for this?
