Hello!
I have a RAID1 array made of two identical SSD. The array historically
contained spinning disks, and I find the following configuration on both
devices now:
mdadm -X /dev/sdb1
Filename : /dev/sdb1
Magic : xxx
Version : 4
UUID : xxx
Events : 32761
Events Cleared : 32761
State : OK
Chunksize : 64 MB
Daemon : 5s flush period
Write Mode : Allow write behind, max 4096
Sync Size : 1953381440 (1862.89 GiB 2000.26 GB)
Bitmap : 29807 bits (chunks), 1 dirty (0.0%)
mdadm -X /dev/sdc1
Filename : /dev/sdc1
Magic : xxx
Version : 4
UUID : xxx
Events : 32761
Events Cleared : 32761
State : OK
Chunksize : 64 MB
Daemon : 5s flush period
Write Mode : Allow write behind, max 4096
Sync Size : 1953381440 (1862.89 GiB 2000.26 GB)
Bitmap : 29807 bits (chunks), 1 dirty (0.0%)
I assume, it is not very meaningful to have --write-behind active on
both devices. Actually I would want to remove this configuration for
both, assuming there is no reason to keep it with two SSD. But a:
mdadm /dev/md0 --fail /dev/sdb1
mdadm /dev/md0 --remove /dev/sdb1
mdadm /dev/md0 --re-add --readwrite /dev/sdb1
did not do the trick and I cannot find any instructions on how to
disable it on an existing array.
Thanks for any help!
