Do you have any suggestions Neil?
Yep. Upgrade to the latest kernel! (Don't you just hate it when that
turns out to be the answer).
8-))), No I do not mind. I like updating the kernel even for
half as good a reason.
thanks, Scott
Ingo's patch is half right, but not quite there.
Hi Neil;
I am hoping you are going to tell me this is already solved,
but here goes...
scenario:
hda4, hdb4, and hdc4 in a raid 5 with no hotspare.
With 2.4.3 XFS kernels, it seems that a raid 5 does not come
up correctly if the first disk is unavailable. The error message
that
In the XFS kernel tree v2.4.3 w/ several patches,
we were unable to raidhotremove and subsequently
raidhotadd a spare without a reboot. It did not
matter if you had a new or the same hard disk. We then
tried the patch Igno Molnar sent regarding the issue.
Hi;
RAID 4/5 does not seem to be working properly with
the patches I have applied from Neil Brown's site
for kernel 2.4.0-test11. When raid5 is in the kernel,
I cannot boot. When it is a module, the oops shown
below occurs with the lsmod showing:
xor (initializing)
You cannot rmmod
