@vk: cat /proc/mdstat indicated a different array - one that I did not build. It must have build it automatically (md_d1). Upon deleting this "other" array (md_d1), i was able to build a new array. It seems as if mdadm tried to build a broken array from one of the disks that still had the previous raid settings, which would explain why that one drive was unable to be used.
Hope that helps -Dusty -- mdadm cannot assemble array as cannot open drive with O_EXCL https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27037 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
