Hello everybody!

Situation1:

-raid-5 with no spare-disk up and running
-one partition is going down
-raidhotremove /dev/md0 /dev/bad-partition
-replacing bad disk with new one
-raidhotadd /dev/md0 /dev/new-partition
-resync and everything works fine

Situation2:

-raid-5 with spare-disk up and running
-one partition is going down
-raidhotremove /dev/md0 /dev/bad-partition:

can not hot-remove disk: disk busy!

What's wrong?
Why I can't remove the bad disk while using spare-disks?
My mistake?
Needed an aditional parameter in /etc/raidtab?
Changing the/etc/raidtab to the new situation brings no effect.

I tested the situation with RAID-1,4 and RAID-5. The result is everytime the
same.

Any hints?


P.S.: Sorry for my bad english.
