Hi Guys, I have two file server that's running both gutsy and heron respectively, both of them have RAID5 devices (Linux RAID) and both of the arrays seems to break now and then, I have no problem recovering and repairing the array on heron but I can't get it done on gutsy. Basically I just removed the declared faulty drive and re-add the same and assemble the array, but this same technique won't work on gutsy. I want to re-create the array on the gutsy box but I have some apprehension, number 1 of which what if I would never be able to recover the data. The gutsy box has three raid devices, md0, md1 and md2, I'm quite sure that md0 is my boot partition and is on RAID1, and both md1 and md2 are RAID5, since I don't remember which RAID device is my /home and / partition my question is would it matter if I re-create and assemble md1 with the following devices (sdb2 sdc2 and sdd2) and md2 with (sdb5, sdc5 and sdd5) respectively if the original members is the other way around? (in Tagalog nagkabaligtad?) I'm afraid I might lose the files if I made this mistake. BTW, the gutsy box won't boot normally it goes directly to initramfs.
Any suggestions? TIA. Jan
