Subject: Raid5 with 2 bad drives
Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2005 11:43:18 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <u650k4kbd.fsf@julius-net.net> (raw)
Hi,
I have a raid5 out of 4 drives where 2 drives failed and were
removed. Since it happened during backup I would very much like to
reactivate the array to rescue as much data as there are intact.
When I try to assemble the array with mdadm it tells me that there are
not enough devices. Is there a way to convince mdadm to use the
faulty drive to get a working array?
Matthias
