I have a 5 devices RAID5 array. On top of this I have 4 lvm partitions
- 3 of them mounted read-only.
One device from the array failed; I stopped the system, replaced the
device with a new one, powered it on again, partitioned the new device
and run mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --add /dev/sdc1. The rebuild started
and finished without an apparent problem, mdadm --detail reported an
array with 5 devices active and synced and data was available all the
time.
After one reboot - the array was still healthy looking, but all 4
partitions were unmountable and unrecognizable by fsck. I powered off
the system, removed the newly added disk and after poweron I
re-asswmbled the array with 4 devices using --force; the partitions
that were mounted readonly are now mountable again and healthy looking
- the 4th is unmountable and fsck dies on it with a "too many errors"
message.
I reproduced the operation: added the 5th device, re-synced, rebooted
and again I cannot read any partition, although mdadm reports a
healthy array.
Not sure what to do here, so I would appreciate very much your help.
Regards,
Emil
