Is there a way to control an array resync process? In particular, is it possible to skip read errors? My setup: LVM2 Phisical Volume over a two disks MD RAID1 array Logical Volumes didn't span whole PV, some PE free at the end of disks What happened: disk1 broke I installed new disk1 and started sync from disk2 to disk1 but at 99.9% disk2 gave some read errors and the sync process started again, over and over I didn't notice errors on disk2 because they were in unallocated PEs at the end of the disk. The MD device spans the whole disk, while the LVs don't. I'd like to complete sync ignoring read errors, then replace disk2. I think this is a not-so-uncommon situation, leaving some PEs free for future expansion is a good idea and errors go undetected until you "use" those free areas.
