Subject: SET_BITMAP_FILE assembling raid1
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2009 16:07:18 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090917160718.15831qsk0zd6k2e8@webmail.ualberta.ca> (raw)
Hi,
After have stopped a raid1, I try to assemble it with one device and
its bitmap; but I received the following error message:
$mdadm --assemble --force /dev/md2003 --bitmap=/tmp/md2003bm
/dev/syntropy21/ian_dvol_200_0_1
mdadm: SET_BITMAP_FILE failed.
After 5 minutes I retry the command and it succeeds, assembling the
raid without any problems.
It looks like mdadm cannot use the file I specified for the external
bitmap, but this file is not in use by any other raid. Is there any
explanation on why assemble could fail to create the raid with the
specified bitmap?
Thank you.
Juan.
