all sdb, sdc, md0 are gpt labeled without gpt partitions
inside. No crash so far but without any data written.
Maybe the gpt partitions did the bad thing?
Can md0 use large gpt drives with no partitions?
can lvm2 use large raid device with no partition pv?
crashed and burned also:

I stopped it, can't wait to search 7TB to find the secondary

/test works
So are we sure it's the fs?
Something else is fishy...

This is a really basic thing, but do you have the x86 support for very
large block devices (I can't remember what the option is, since I've
been running 64 bits on any system that even remotely came close to
needing it anyway) enabled in the config as well?
Here's a hit from google, CONFIG_LBD http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/LBD.html
Enable block devices of size 2TB and larger.
Since you're using a device>2TB in size, I will assume you are using
one of the three 'version 1' superblock types. Either at the end 1.0,
beginning 1.1 or 4kb in from the beginning.
Please provide the full output of mdadm -Dvvs
You can use any block device as a member of an md array. However if
you are going 'whole drive' then it would be a very good idea to erase
the existing partition table structure prior to putting a raid
superblock on the device. This way there is no confusion about if the
device has partitions or is in fact a raid member. Similarly when
transitioning back the other way ensuring that the old metadata for
the array is erased is also a good idea.
The kernel you're running seems to be ... exceptionally old and
heavily patched. I have no way of knowing if the many, many, patches
that fixed numerous issues over the /years/ since it's release have
been included. Please make sure you have the most recent release from
your vendor and ask them for support in parallel.
I would agree that it would be key to try this on a newer kernel & on a
64 bit box. If you have an issue with a specific vendor release, you
should open a ticket/bugzilla with that vendor so they can help you
figure this out.
