mdadm: failed to RUN_ARRAY

One of my RAID 5 stopped last night. I get this when I try to
restart it:
[root [at] pep raid]# mdadm -A /dev/md0
mdadm: device 5 in /dev/md0 has wrong state in superblock, but /dev/hdk1
seems ok
mdadm: failed to RUN_ARRAY /dev/md0: Invalid argument

Is my hdk1 gone. Should I try to replace that?

Re: mdadm: failed to RUN_ARRAY

Ok, more on this. I think two of my RAID drives failed. and after I
posted the email below, I did something that I am guessign I shouldn't
have.

mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/hdk1
mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/hdi1

Should I try recreating the array in degrading mode.

mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=5 /dev/hde1 /dev/hdf1 /dev/hdg1 /dev/hdh1 missing

But I think that only works with one failed device.

recreate superblock? (was Re: mdadm: failed to RUN_ARRAY)

Is there any way to regain the superblock? I mistakenly did a
--zero-superblock on /dev/hdi and /dev/hdk
/dev/hdi is one of the bad one, but I think it is not totally gone. So I
was trying to force it.

[root [at] pep root]# mdadm -A /dev/md0 --force /dev/hd[efghi]1
mdadm: no RAID superblock on /dev/hdi1
mdadm: /dev/hdi1 has no superblock - assembly aborted

I would appreciate some hints. Thanks.

Re: recreate superblock? (was Re: mdadm: failed to RUN_ARRAY)

Hi Sharif,

>From the kernel log, I believe that the raid5 array now has 4 working
disks out of 6 raid disks. My suggestion is to recreate the array.

Before recreating the MD array, I would suggest that you run mdadm
--examine /dev/hdxx (i.e. hde1, hdf1 or hdg1) and write down the
information of the original array setup.

Some of the important Raid5 info are : Raid Devices, Total Devices,
Preferred Minor (/dev/mdx), Spare Devices, Layout, Chunk Size, order of
devices.

When you **decide** to use mdadm -C to recreate array, mdadm will ask
you to confirm on overwriting existing md superblock.

Good luck!
Mike T.

Worked!! Re: recreate superblock? (was Re: mdadm: failed to RUN_ARRAY)

--raid-devices=6 /dev/hde1 /dev/hdf1 /dev/hdg1 /dev/hdh1 /dev/hdi1 missing
