Help! im lost, finaly have found the new howto on ftp.fi.kernel.org after days
of dispair and old documentation... tried the new tools ... nada ... tried
kernel patches ... busted kernel 2.2.5 ...
My problem is this ... i created the /etc/raidtools (modified example raid1
raidtab) with 3 scsi disks .. then as the howto states i do a
[root@sauron /root]# mkraid /dev/md0
handling MD device /dev/md0
analyzing super-block
disk 0: /dev/sda1, 4192933kB, raid superblock at 4192832kB
disk 1: /dev/sdb1, 4192933kB, raid superblock at 4192832kB
disk 2: /dev/sdc1, 4192933kB, raid superblock at 4192832kB
mkraid: aborted
this is what ive been getting all the time now .. no explination, no reasons, no
fixes <sigh>, what am i doing wrong?
Ps my raidtab:
raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level 0
nr-raid-disks 3
nr-spare-disks 0
chunk-size 16
persistent-superblock 1
device /dev/sda1
raid-disk 0
device /dev/sdb1
raid-disk 1
device /dev/sdc1
raid-disk 2
and my /proc/mdstats
Personalities : [1 linear] [2 raid0] [3 raid1] [4 raid5]
read_ahead not set
md0 : inactive
md1 : inactive
md2 : inactive
md3 : inactive
thanks in advance, for any help
