Subject: Re-add not selecting drive for correct slot?
Date: Thu, 06 Aug 2015 23:09:37 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1817382.9YhZ7ff5Yl@balsa> (raw)
Hi again.
I had a drive disappear off the bus while I was out of town. I just
Pulled it and installed a replacement drive. The problem is that
another drive was kicked when I pulled the failed drive.
Looking at the array info, it should be re-add'able, the event counts
are very close.
Thinking I'm smarter than I really am, I tried a:
$ mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --re-add /dev/sdb
But that returned with device or resource busy, obviously the
array is still holding onto it. Then I:
$ mdadm --remove /dev/md0 /dev/sdb
$ mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --re-add /dev/sdb
But that just added it as a spare, and wiped the slot/role data that
was once in the --examine output.
After that I tried force assembling, but it refused saying it only found
5 active and 1 spare device which is not enough to start the array.
Is there a way to convince mdadm to assemble this into a working
degraded array?
Also, sdc has a much lower event count than the other drives, is that
normal?
/dev/sdc is the first drive that failed
/dev/sdb is the one that was kicked after
