Hi, I am trying to recover a 10 disk raid6-set, but to no succes. After reading https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID_Recovery, I tried the following but the —force option does not seem to work: root@kvm:/var/log# mdadm --assemble --verbose --force /dev/md127 /dev/sd[q-z] mdadm: looking for devices for /dev/md127 mdadm: /dev/sdq is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 2. mdadm: /dev/sdr is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 3. mdadm: /dev/sds is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 4. mdadm: /dev/sdt is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 5. mdadm: /dev/sdu is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 6. mdadm: /dev/sdv is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 7. mdadm: /dev/sdw is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 1. mdadm: /dev/sdx is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 0. mdadm: /dev/sdy is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 8. mdadm: /dev/sdz is identified as a member of /dev/md127, slot 9. mdadm: added /dev/sdw to /dev/md127 as 1 mdadm: added /dev/sdq to /dev/md127 as 2 mdadm: added /dev/sdr to /dev/md127 as 3 mdadm: added /dev/sds to /dev/md127 as 4 mdadm: added /dev/sdt to /dev/md127 as 5 mdadm: added /dev/sdu to /dev/md127 as 6 mdadm: added /dev/sdv to /dev/md127 as 7 (possibly out of date) mdadm: added /dev/sdy to /dev/md127 as 8 (possibly out of date) mdadm: added /dev/sdz to /dev/md127 as 9 (possibly out of date) mdadm: added /dev/sdx to /dev/md127 as 0 mdadm: /dev/md127 assembled from 7 drives - not enough to start the array. The Event differences between the devices is not that much: root@kvm:/var/log# mdadm -E /dev/sd[q-z] |grep Event Events : 9979 Events : 9979 Events : 9979 Events : 9979 Events : 9979 Events : 9974 Events : 9979 Events : 9979 Events : 9971 Events : 9976 I’m running Linux kvm.wiebel.nl 4.2.0-30-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 19 13:52:26 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux and using mdadm - v3.3 - 3rd September 2013 Any help here would be very much appreciated, I’m guessing i’m overlooking something :) Best regards, Joris
