What it means is that one of the slices of your mirror is out of sync
with the rest. If you are sure that there is nothing wrong with the
drive, you can use mdadm to make the mirror reconstruct.

Hi,
I have a software RAID-1 (2 IDE drives) configuration on a Fedora Core 3 box.
After a power-failure took it down unclean, I got the below email during reboot:
------------------------------------
This is an automatically generated mail message from mdadm running on <SERVERNAME>
A DegradedArray event had been detected on md device /dev/md0.
Faithfully yours, etc.
------------------------------------
/proc/mdstat says this:
# less /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md0 : active raid1 hda3[1]
193157440 blocks [2/1] [_U]
unused devices: <none>
------------------------------------
Does anybody have any pointer on what to do to fix this?
What does the mdstat result really mean?
Thanks,
MARK
