Hello, I had a RAID5 with 4x 4Tb drives. I added a fifth drive to grow into 5x 4TB. Everything was perfect. Too bad one of the original drive went faulty. The Reshape speed went to less than 100Kb/s and the server become very unresponsive. Also kernel operation timeout went out. I tried to shutdown system but it crashed. Then I reassemble the raid. The old faulty drive become spare drive and raid went active with 4/5 drives(3 original + 1 new(1% reshaped)). Reshaping restarted automatically but become slow as before and crash system. I tried to assemble it as readonly and it works perfectly, all data still there. How can I reshape without this disaster? I have a solid backup of everything on LTO tapes, but if there is an easiest way I’d prefer. Thankyou for help. Luca
