Ok, fin qui ci siamo...
Situazione di partenza: 2 HD in raid software
Nel caso di uno degli HD guasti da console
[root@server ~]# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md2 : active raid1 sdb2[1]
244035264 blocks [2/1] [_U]
md1 : active raid1 sda1[0] sdb1[1]
104320 blocks [2/2] [UU]
unused devices: <none>
ci dice che sda2 è stata esclusa dal raid in quanto malfunzionante...
quindi il disco che vede SME (md2) non è in buono stato in fatti un successivo
[root@server ~]# mdadm --detail --verbose /dev/md2

Ci conferma appunto che sda2 è stata rimossa dal raid.
In tal caso ci basterà sostituire il disco e tutto tornerà a posto dopo aver riconfigurato il raid dal pannello di SME.
Ma come fare per capire quale dei due dischi montati è sda o sdb?
Un utile comando può essere smartctl che ci può informare (se sul nostro disco è attivo lo SMART) dello stato del disco e di altre informazioni utili tra le quali il numero seriale univoco del disco...

che ci darà anche informazioni aggiuntive sullo stato dell'HD stesso o, per meglio dire, su quello che il sistema SMART ha registrato o è in grado di registrare...
Qualcuno che utilizza raid 5 potrebbe postare l'output dei comandi suindicati così da fare qualche confronto?
