raid6 check/repair

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have been looking a bit at the check/repair functionality in the
raid6 personality.

It seems that if an inconsistent stripe is found during repair, md
does not try to determine which block is corrupt (using e.g. the
method in section 4 of HPA's raid6 paper), but just recomputes the
parity blocks - i.e. the same way as inconsistent raid5 stripes are
handled.

Correct?
