-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi! I´ve got a problem with a software raid5. PC runs debian sarge/sid/etch mix with 2.6.16 self built and mdadm mdadm 2.5.3.git200608202239-7. 1 of 6 SATA 400GB drives failes and I rebooted the PC. After reboot RAID was resyncing. But again the HD died and the PC rebooted again, I pulled off the bad HD and now the RAID5 won´t resync again. I built a 2.6.17 kernel and replaced mdadm to mdadm 2.5.4-1 and still RAID5 won´t resync again: cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1] [raid10] [raid5] [raid4] [raid6] [multipath] [faulty] md0 : inactive sda1[0] sde1[5] sdd1[4] sdc1[3] sdb1[1] 1953543680 blocks unused devices: <none> mdadm --detail /dev/md0 /dev/md0: Version : 00.90.03 Creation Time : Fri May 12 16:10:24 2006 Raid Level : raid5 Device Size : 390708736 (372.61 GiB 400.09 GB) Raid Devices : 6 Total Devices : 5 Preferred Minor : 0 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Update Time : Tue Oct 17 14:11:56 2006 State : active, degraded, Not Started Active Devices : 5 Working Devices : 5 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Layout : left-symmetric Chunk Size : 256K UUID : 5ce125ae:b76d7567:a531953b:fbba92fc Events : 0.2818447 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 8 1 0 active sync /dev/sda1 1 8 17 1 active sync /dev/sdb1 2 0 0 2 removed 3 8 33 3 active sync /dev/sdc1 4 8 49 4 active sync /dev/sdd1 5 8 65 5 active sync /dev/sde1 mdadm --stop /dev/md0 mdadm: stopped /dev/md0 sinope:~# mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 mdadm: failed to RUN_ARRAY /dev/md0: Input/output error Any hints? tips?
