Shrinking a RAID1--superblock problems

2006-12-12 Thread Jonathan Terhorst
I need to shrink a RAID1 array and am having trouble with the persistent superblock; namely, mdadm --grow doesn't seem to relocate it. If I downsize the array and then shrink the corresponding partitions, the array fails since the superblock (which is normally located near the end of the device)
