Subject: Missing md superblock on added devices after grow ...
Date: Sat, 23 May 2009 17:03:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200905231703.03692.denrdc@gmail.com> (raw)

Yesterday i grew my 4*500GB raid5 array to 7*500GB. The reshape operation 
ended succesfully according to the logs : 

May 22 22:24:56 [kernel] md: md2: reshape done.
May 22 22:24:56 [kernel] RAID5 conf printout:
May 22 22:24:56 [kernel]  --- rd:7 wd:7
May 22 22:24:56 [kernel]  disk 0, o:1, dev:dm-3
May 22 22:24:56 [kernel]  disk 1, o:1, dev:dm-0
May 22 22:24:56 [kernel]  disk 2, o:1, dev:dm-2
May 22 22:24:56 [kernel]  disk 3, o:1, dev:dm-1
May 22 22:24:56 [kernel]  disk 4, o:1, dev:dm-8
May 22 22:24:56 [kernel]  disk 5, o:1, dev:dm-6
May 22 22:24:56 [kernel]  disk 6, o:1, dev:dm-5

However, upon restarting this morning the grown array was no longer detected, 
and my investigation revealed that the 3 device that were added do not contain 
an md superblock at all !

One of the 3 new devices :
mdadm --examine -v /dev/sdb1
mdadm: No md superblock detected on /dev/sdb1.

The 4 original devices do contain a superblock :
mdadm --examine -v /dev/sdc1
/dev/sdc1:

Any ideas how i could fix this, or even start the array to get my data off ?
