Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2007 13:20:13 +0200 Message-ID: <46CEBEED.1060209@wpkg.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-2; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: Sender: linux-raid-owner@vger.kernel.org To: Linux-Raid List-Id: linux-raid.ids I built RAID-5 on a Debian Etch machine running 2.6.22.5 with this command: mdadm --create /dev/md0 --chunk=64 --level=raid5 --raid-devices=5 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1 After some time, it was synchronized just fine. I removed one drive, put it back again, readded the drive to the array. It started rebuilding. However, if the rebuilding is not 100% done, and I reboot the machine, rebuilding starts from 0. Is it normal? -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org
