Subject: Raid5 trouble after Upgrade. How to change this magic number in superblock
Date: Wed, 09 Apr 2003 12:18:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3E93F385.6090603@web.de> (raw)
Hello there,
I got a problem with my raid5.
After I updated my linux distribution the following happend:
While booting the autoraid process yells at me:
md: invalid raid superblock magic on md0
md: md0 has invalid sb, not importing
md: no nested devices found
md: autorun done
raid5: switching cache buffer size, 4096 --> 1024
cat /proc/mdstat looks completly ok
lsraid tells me that md0 doesnt have a valid superblock
mdadm --examine tells me that the magic number it reads from superblock
/dev/md0 is not what was expected.
Strangely: The expected magic number is on the superblock of all four
raid partitions!!!.
They all look like this:
/dev/hde1:
Magic : a92b4efc
Version : 00.90.00

this 0 33 1 0 active sync /dev/hde1
0 0 33 1 0 active sync /dev/hde1
1 1 33 65 1 active sync /dev/hdf1
2 2 34 1 2 active sync /dev/hdg1
3 3 34 65 3 /dev/hdh1
All deviced show this info. But the md0 superblock seems to have a wrong
magic number.
I can mount /dev/md0 just fine and also read or modify data. This error
message is just making me nervous.
Can i change the superblock to the valid values again somehow? If yes
how :)?
Any1 got an idea ?
Thx
Christian
P.S
