Can't grow IMSM RAID5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello

I’m stuck trying to add a 4th disc to an IMSM RAID5 container:

# mdadm -a /dev/md127 /dev/sdb
mdadm: added /dev/sdb

# mdadm --grow --raid-devices=4 /dev/md127 --backup-file=/mnt/spare/raid-backup-file
mdadm: Cannot read superblock for /dev/md127

# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid6] [raid5] [raid4]
md0 : active raid5 sdd[2] sda[1] sdc[0]
1887436800 blocks super external:/md127/0 level 5, 128k chunk, algorithm 0 [3/3] [UUU]

md1 : active (auto-read-only) raid5 sdc[2] sdd[1] sda[0]
66077696 blocks super external:/md127/1 level 5, 128k chunk, algorithm 0 [3/3] [UUU]

md127 : inactive sdb[3](S) sda[2](S) sdc[1](S) sdd[0](S)
     12612 blocks super external:imsm

unused devices: <none>

# mdadm –V
mdadm - v3.3 - 3rd September 2013


I don’t know if this is related but mdmon has trouble finding the ports:
