These two disks are (or, at least, were) part of my failed level 6 array. What does this output indicate? # mdadm --examine /dev/sdg /dev/sdg: MBR Magic : aa55 Partition[0] : 3907024002 sectors at 63 (type fd) # mdadm --examine /dev/sdh /dev/sdh: MBR Magic : aa55 Partition[0] : 3907024002 sectors at 63 (type fd) Why doesn't it instead give the same sort of metadata that the other disks show? It's as if there is no raid superblock on these two disks, but how is this possible if the disks have been part of a working array? --- Mike VanHorn Senior Computer Systems Administrator College of Engineering and Computer Science Wright State University 265 Russ Engineering Center 937-775-5157 michael.vanhorn@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.cecs.wright.edu/~mvanhorn/ -- 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
