Hi, I'm currently having issues with a raid array being marked as active(auto-read-only). It's a raid 5 array of 4 disks plus a 1 hot spare. I was attempting to grow it to use all 5 disks when my server hung, just after it backed up the critical sector information. Now, I've seen people on this list being told do mdadm /dev/md0 --readwrite. Unfortunately this just causes my machine to hang again. Does anyone have any suggestions?
