--- Begin Message ---Neil, this is also for you... ----- Forwarded message from Felix Zielcke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2008 10:49:19 +0200 From: Felix Zielcke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> X-EqTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Debian Bug Tracking System <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Bug#495755: please make output more clear if your array is now broken Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (sfid-20080820_105445_310051_0347D270) Package: mdadm Version: 2.6.7-3 Severity: wishlist In case of `mdadm' and RAID at all I'm a stupid person and my english isn't that great either. It would be very nice if output of `mdadm' is more clear in case of a broken array. Currently the only hint you get from `mdadm' that your array is broken is this: # mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1 /dev/sdf1 mdadm: /dev/md0 assembled from 1 drive and 3 spares - not enough to start the array. It could say something like `Your array is broken, you can't use it anymore' # mdadm -Q --detail /dev/md0 Raid Level : raid10 State : clean, degraded Active Devices : 1 Spare Devices : 3 And again the State: could be in this case definately `broken' The FAQ on question 18 lists the numbers how many disks can fail if you have luck for a RAID-10, in these cases there could be a `maybe broken' displayed. _______________________________________________ pkg-mdadm-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-mdadm-devel ----- End forwarded message ----- -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer, author, administrator, and user `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck - http://debiansystem.info `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
