this is a little OT, but the system is at least running FC2.
i have an ibm X330 with a ServeRAID 4Lx controller (secretly a
mylex controller). i have been running it with a pair of IBM SCSI
drives (the ones supplied with it), in RAID 1.
i recently decided i wanted to verify that rebuilding worked properly;
i took a "IBM" hotswap unit (a Quantum of slightly larger capacity in
an IBM tray) and swapped it in, first marking the drive it was replacing
defunct using the IBM utility (the utility is for RH 9, but it seems to work
ok in FC2). it appeared automagically go to rebuild mode as soon as
it went in.
it's two days later, and the drive is still rebuilding. just how long should
such a rebuild take? anyone know? there are no error messages; the
ibm RaidMan utility beeps every so often, but the drive is simply labeled
"rebuilding" in its properties panel.
