Does mdadm 3.1.x not support shrinking the number of disks in a RAID5 array? I have successfully converted my 6x1.5tb RAID6 array to a 6x1.5tb RAID5 array. The issue that I now face is that one of those 6 drives is failed / removed, and as a result - the new RAID5 array is down it's parity drive. I knew I was short a disk when I started the process, but I was under the assumption that mdadm now supported shrinking of RAID5/6 arrays. Am I mistaken, or can anyone throw some suggestions at me so I can give it a try?
