Found it. Thanks for the suggestion. However, this is extreme verbose: layout: 2 disks: 8 component size: 249108103168 total stripes: 15204352 chunk size: 16384 disk: 0 - offset: 134217728 - size: 250864926720 - name: /dev/sdk1 - slot: 5 disk: 1 - offset: 134217728 - size: 250864926720 - name: /dev/sdj1 - slot: 4 disk: 2 - offset: 134217728 - size: 250864926720 - name: /dev/sdi1 - slot: 7 disk: 3 - offset: 134217728 - size: 250864926720 - name: /dev/sdh1 - slot: 3 disk: 4 - offset: 134217728 - size: 250864926720 - name: /dev/sdg1 - slot: 2 disk: 5 - offset: 134217728 - size: 250864926720 - name: /dev/sdf1 - slot: 1 disk: 6 - offset: 134217728 - size: 250864926720 - name: /dev/sde1 - slot: 6 disk: 7 - offset: 134217728 - size: 250863844352 - name: /dev/sdd1 - slot: 0 pos --> 0 0->1 1->2 2->3 3->4 4->5 5->6 pos --> 1 0->0 1->1 2->2 3->3 4->4 5->5 pos --> 2 0->7 1->0 2->1 3->2 4->3 5->4 pos --> 3 0->6 1->7 2->0 3->1 4->2 5->3 pos --> 4 0->5 1->6 2->7 3->0 4->1 5->2 pos --> 5 ... etc. ad nauseam. I guess "pos" means stripe here, so it would print this for all stripes in the array? Does this means all of them are broken? Or what would I have to look for to see where an error mightbe?
