Quoting Mitchell Laks <mlaks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
Hi mdadm raid gurus,
I wanted to make a raid1 array, but at the moment I have only 1
drive available. The other disk is
in the mail. I wanted to make a raid1 that i will use as a backup.
But I need to do the backup now, before the second drive comes.
So I did this.
formated /dev/sda creating /dev/sda1 with type fd.
then I tried to run
mdadm -C /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=1 /dev/sda1
Perhaps give this a try:
# mdadm -C /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sda1 missing
Cheers,
Mike
