When I request to replace sda with sdj (RAID6 in my case), does it create sdj from the other members (NOT using sda) or does it make a copy of (by reading) sda?
It reads sda and copies it to sdj. When it's done it'll fail sda. If it has problems reading from sda, it'll use the rest of the drives to recreate/recalculate the block and write that to sdj.
