Hello! I'm trying to figure out how one can recover from linear mode crash. I'm aware that from this type of mode I can recover only part of data, there's no redundancy in linear mode and that's ok for me. I'm ok with part of it. so far I'm trying to get it work in VM for now. I've added two 50M disks to my VM. and partiotioned them like this: Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/vdb1 2048 102399 50176 fd Linux raid autodetect Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/vdc1 2048 102399 50176 fd Linux raid autodetect mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level linear --raid-disks 2 /dev/vdb1 /dev/vdc1 mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf mkfs.xfs /dev/md0 mount /dev/md0 /mnt/linear/ mkdir /mnt/linear/etc mkdir /mnt/linear/etc2 mkdir /mnt/linear/etc3 filled with some data cp -r /etc/* /mnt/linear/etc/ cp -r /etc/* /mnt/linear/etc2/ cp -r /etc/* /mnt/linear/etc3/ df -h /dev/md0 Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md0 92M 69M 23M 76% /mnt/linear then I remove one disk from my VM umount /mnt/linear mdadm --stop /dev/md0 I've added another clear disk image 50M. make partitions on new disk sfdisk -d /dev/vdb | sfdisk /dev/vdc how should I proceed ? thanks a lot! -- С уважением, Костырев Александр системный администратор ЗАО "Сервер-Центр" тел.: (423) 262-02-62 (доб. 2037) -- 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
