I did not realize this when I built my array. I'm going to need to grow the array to 3T components after the 3T drives are released. Can the superblock be changed on an existing array, or does it have to be rebuilt from scratch? If the latter, I'm glad I learned this now, because I may have to rebuild the array, anyway, to try to alleviate the halt issue I am experiencing. -- 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
