FC5, MDADM and a raid recovery

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I built a softraid using mdadm some time ago. It used 4 250GB SATA drives.
All worked fine. Its loaded about 55% and runs 24x7.

I started to upgrade to FC6. Rather than leaving things as they were the installer didn't recognize the RAID configuration and did something to the first drive /dev/sda. I killed the install and rebooted FC5. It booted correctly, however the RAID was apparently tampered with.

Thinking I should be able to recover I tried several cautious paths, however to no avail. Here is a sequence that should help someone schooled in the file systems. ANY suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
