Good morning list readers -
Having some trouble with a raid1 device that someone else setup. Here is
what it SHOULD be doing:
partitions sda5 + sdb6 = md0 as described in the raidtab, however, for
some reason when i cat /proc/mdstat i see:
md0 : active raid1 sdd2[1]
143363840 blocks [2/1] [_U]
i unmount the respective mount, and try to issue the raidstop command
and receive:
[root@ag736 root]# raidstop /dev/md0
/dev/md0: Device or resource busy
and in dmesg
md: md0 still in use.
Now, i have googled, read a couple howtos, checked a few archives and
trying what i have found has NOT worked at all, i even removed the scsi
device that it says is in the raid device (ala echo "scsi
remove-single-device 0 00 03 00" > /proc/scsi/scsi) and to no avail. By
the way these raid devices were setup at install time when the device
sdd was NOT EVEN in the system - so i am very confused, but trying to
rebuild this raid device with the CORRECT partitions.
Anyone have any ideas how to "FORCE" the breakage of this raid device?
Thanks in advance
Michael Weiner
