Topic: Raid problem ???

[Andre Courchesne]

Hi,

  I have a new instalation using 5.5 (latest upgrade). It's a raid installation and raidmonitor gives me the following error:

[root@acamar var]# raidmonitor -v

ALARM! RAID configuration problem

Current configuration is:

Personalities : [raid1]
read_ahead 1024 sectors
md2 : active raid1 hdc1[1] hda1[0] 262464 blocks [2/2] [UU]
md0 : active raid1 hdc5[1] hda5[0] 10432 blocks [2/2] [UU]
md1 : active raid1 hdc6[1] hda6[0] 14878464 blocks [2/2] [UU]
unused devices:

Last known good configuration was:

Personalities : [raid1]
read_ahead 1024 sectors
md2 : active raid1 hdc1[1] hda1[0] 262464 blocks [2/2] [UU] resync=DELAYED
md0 : active raid1 hdc5[1] hda5[0] 10432 blocks [2/2] [UU] resync=DELAYED
md1 : active raid1 hdc6[1] hda6[0] 14878464 blocks [2/2] [UU] resync=0% finish=745.3min
unused devices:


Any ideas on what is going on?

What's wrong is that you ran raidmonitor -iv while the array was still syncing.  Rerun that now, and you should be fine.

I did that and not raidmonitor -v returns nothing...

That's what it's supposed to do--raidmonitor -v only returns output if there's a discrepancy between the configuration that's saved and the one that's currently active.
