Please correct me if I'm > wrong. If the disk has errors, /proc/mdstat will show it as failed, and it will appear to be out of the array. However, an error on one part of the disk (say, partition 1) may cause the raid array using partition 1 to show a failure, but not another array using partition 2, even though that entire disk may be suspect. Which takes us to what is odd about your setup: > Personalities : [raid10] > > md126 : active raid10 sdb[3] sdc[2] sdd[1] sde[0] > > 1465144320 blocks super external:/md127/0 64K chunks 2 near-copies > [4/4] [UUUU] > > > > md127 : inactive sdb[3](S) sdc[2](S) sdd[1](S) sde[0](S) > > 9028 blocks super external:imsm I've never seen this before. It seems to indicate you are using 1.x metadata, with the superblock for md126 stored in another array, md127, which is inactive. I have no idea how that can be created, nor what it will mean now.
