I have one question, how to rebuld soft RAID array on SME server 5.6u4. One of the disks has failed.
I have backup of all data but don't know how quick and easy :) rebuild that raid array?
server does not do that automaticly right?

Can you post the output of #cat /proc/mdstat

I have already try all procedures in all RAID How to's but none worked. It is always same: file not found or disk busy problem or something else....but this was very interesting (not successfull but who knows..?)
I have dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb and after that:
raidmonitor -i and reboot.....
At the begining there was no error mesage that RAID is broken and so on but after that Kernel panic: can not find boot sector os similar...So It looks like that this will work if I did not forgot to change MBR (lilo) on second drive.. but now I can't find out how to do that ...
So my server is stil working with one drive if anybody have any idea you re welcome
