Given this situation:
7 disks in total
RAID5 of 6 disks, and a hot spare.
mdadm show the 6 disks, but not the spare.
As a maintenance question, where one wants to periodically ensure that
the hot spare is both available and good.
How should one best :
1) Verify the hot spare is still available.
- On the relevant line in mdadm.conf, put "spares=1"
- have a daily cron job that runs
mdadm --montor --scan --oneshot
It will report every day with a "SparesMissing" event if the right
number of spares is not present.
But that will wakeup the spare-drive ? So i have to put them aspleep
again with "hdparm -y" ?
