Mdadm --dtop /dev/md0 # OK Mdadm --zero-superblock --force /dev/sda1 # OK Mdadm --zero-superblock --force /dev/sdb1 # OK These return to prompt without any messages. If I then run them a second time they complain that the device is not part of an array. All well and good. Mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=raid1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sd[ab]1 # NOT OK. Complains "already an array" starts a new resync. Mdadm --stop /dev/md0 # stops resync :) What else is needed? Am I unable to recreate the array on md0? Must I choose a new device such as md1? Or is there another stop to erasing an array? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
