Hi All,
I'm having a problem trying to do a simple re-organisation of my raid
arrays for a private Xen system.
The box in question is running Debian Lenny v5.02 (AMD64).
sda1 & sdb1 raid1 /boot (md3)
sda2 & sdb2 raid1 / (md5)
sda3 & sdb3 raid1 swap (md4)
I want to rename the arrays to be /boot on md0, /root on md1 and swap on md2
Now according to my understanding I should just be able to do (via
rescue mode btw):
mdadm --stop /dev/md4
mdadm -A /dev/md2 -m4 --update=super-minor /dev/sd[ab]2
which works as expected, md4 is indeed stopped and a new array md2 shows
as active in /proc/mdstat.
I've modified the /etc/fstab file to reflect the change in swap location
and edited /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf,
reboot and low and behold md4 is back and md2 is no where to be seen.
Can anyone please give me a clue stick to hit this with ? :)
