A follow-up on that comment I am using the bootdegraded=true parameter and each of the two arrays has 5 disks, if I get a full boot all 5 disks come up, it seems like all 10 have just not responded by the time this test comes in and decides it is tired of waiting. I will post dmesg of this in a bit, but triggering these errors, if it can actually create one of the arrays, but halts the boot is now causing problems:
-If the boot is allowed to go through all 10 disks are found and everything comes up cleanly in spite of the errors -if neither array had made it to 4/5 by the time the check is run and it drops to the shell creating neither array I am fine -if one of the arrays has made it to 4/5 and one has not, it assembles the 4/5 array and now I need to do a resync once I get my system up cleanly. It brings up the question to me of why there is not a middle ground option between don't boot at all and boot degraded to just boot and not assemble the array? The current options kind of force someone without physical system access to risk the array just to get the system up. I will also post an example of a "clean" boot once I get the degraded array from my last error rebuilt. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872220 Title: Fails to boot when there's problems with softraid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dmraid/+bug/872220/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
