From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Adriana Rasberry Subject: Software RAID level 1 issue Date: Fri, 30 May 2003 10:53:45 -0700 Sender: linux-raid-owner@vger.kernel.org Message-ID: <01C32699.BEF0A6C0.adrianar@pacbell.net> Reply-To: "razcon@pacbell.net" Return-path: To: 'Linux raid mailing list' List-Id: linux-raid.ids I have a RedHat 9.0 server that went down. On re-start the server has started to come up just fine. It started re-syncing, the first of the raid partitions, the first one went buy fast, then the second took a day and the last drive (md2) has been working on the re-sync for four days (it is fairly large 70 Gig). We are unable to use the server and cannot pull the data off of it because the drives have not mounted, etc. I was wondering if anyone knows if this is normal, and/or how I can get around this problem. I understand that the re-sync is supposed to happen in the background? I have only been using Linux for about a year and could really use some help with this, the system has been down for a week. Thanks in advance for your help. R, Greg
