You should partition the new disk in the same way as the failed disk before adding the new disk to RAID. You can add the replaced disk to RAID using 'raidhotadd' command. The syntax is: raidhotadd <raid_device> <disk_partition> Where <raid_device> is the array which should contain the new (replaced) disk and <disk_partition> is the partition on the new disk which should become the part of array. This command will add new disk to RAID and rebuild the array, writing necessary information to the new disk. You can monitor the progress of array rebuilding in the file /etc/mdstat (e.g with the 'cat /proc/mdstat').
