[ale] Raid Rebuidling

[Robert L. Harris]

Once you re-partition the failed/replacement disk then you can do a:


mdadm -a <raiddev> <replacement drive/partition>

for example:

mdadm -a /dev/md0 /dev/sdd1

Once it starts running "cat /proc/mdstat" to see that it's rebuilding.



Thus spake John R. Allgood -Systems Administrator (john at turbocorp.com):
