The original topic of the linux-raid discussion http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.raid/27822 suggested the idea to detect diverted or segmented array parts by checking for superblocks claiming each other as "failed". (The naming convention of that state is actually a differnt topic http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.raid/27820) But Neil did not respond yet. It may be a feature only if it is not a bug for a raid system not to be able to tell for sure if parts have been segmented/diverged (only relying on a probability of an event count difference, and much worse if a bimap is used.). -- array with conflicting changes is assembled with data corruption/silent loss https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557429 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
