Hi,
after removing a faulty drive from an array the slot number gets increased for the drive replaced:
# mdadm -D /dev/md1
/dev/md1:
Version : 1.2
Creation Time : Thu May 8 22:42:14 2014
Raid Level : raid1
Array Size : 979953 (957.15 MiB 1003.47 MB)
Used Dev Size : 979953 (957.15 MiB 1003.47 MB)
Raid Devices : 2
Total Devices : 2
Persistence : Superblock is persistent
Update Time : Fri May 30 13:26:45 2014
State : clean
Active Devices : 2
Working Devices : 2
Failed Devices : 0
Spare Devices : 0
Name : nihlus:1
UUID : dde5fcbe:2f49d417:6b2fd8cf:a0a5a71c
Events : 107
Number Major Minor RaidDevice State
0 8 2 0 active sync /dev/sda2
2 8 18 1 active sync /dev/sdb2
Is there a way to to reuse the old slot (1 in this case) when adding the new disk rather than skipping a slot?
Regards
Thomas
