Hello,
I have a question as it pertains to the checkarray function of Mdadm. I
can't actually get it to do anything. I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.4 Server
LTS with the latest mdadm installed. I have a single RAID 1 mirror
configured and working properly near as I can tell.
I can force a check if I issue "echo check >
/sys/block/md0/md/sync_action" as root. I can then see the status of
the check via /proc/mdstat or using the --detail switch on mdadm itself.
However, nothing happens if I type in:
/usr/share/mdadm/checkarray -a
or
/usr/share/mdadm/checkarray -a /dev/mdX
or
/usr/share/mdadm/checkarray -as
I've tried the commands as root and using sudo. The array sits idle
after all of the above commands. The only thing I can actually get
checkarray to perform is to give me the help output if I pass it -h. I
have attached, below, the current status of the mdadm managed array.
Doing some Googling I haven't been able to find anyone else that isn't
able to use the checkarray function so I must be doing something wrong.
Any ideas?
