SLES11 - RAID6 all disks marked as Spare
Hello,

After a replacement of the motherboard of my server, all disks belonging to a raid6 are now marked as spare.

Is there any way to mark those disks as active and restore the raid6?

Code:
$ cat /proc/mdstat 
Personalities : [raid1] [raid0] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] 
md1 : inactive sda1[1](S) sdk1[11](S) sdj1[10](S) sdi1[9](S) sdh1[8](S) sdg1[7](S) sdf1[6](S) sde1[5](S) sdd1[4](S) sdc1[3](S) sdb1[2](S)
      10744359296 blocks
       
md0 : active raid1 sdm1[0] sdn1[1]
      2096384 blocks [2/2] [UU]
      
md2 : active raid1 sdm3[0] sdn3[1]
      104864192 blocks [2/2] [UU]
      
unused devices: <none>

All disks show the same info:
Code:
$ mdadm -E /dev/sdb1 
/dev/sdb1:
