Dear linux-raid users,

I have a disk of a 2-disk RAID1 array with damaged superblock. Please 
forgive me if this question as already been asked, but as I am afraid of 
executing a dangerous command, I need to ask:

To recover the superblock, I would run
mdadm --create /dev/md2 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdb2 missing

Is is correct, that this will NOT erase the data on /dev/sdb2?

Best regards,


Eddy Ilg
