I changed disk controller. Unplugged every disk, inserted another controller card, an IBM M1015. The disks are recognized in BIOS, and the controller card's BIOS shows up. But after that, I drop into GRUB and a prompt. That is all.

1. The initial install on the server was performed with an incorrect disk layout.
2. New disks were ordered and slot into the server.
3. The disks are allocated a controller and a disk number based on the disk or... (13 Replies)

raidstop
raidstart(8) System Manager's Manual raidstart(8)
NAME
raidstart, raidstop, - command set to manage md devices.
SYNOPSIS
raidstart [options] <raiddevice>*
raidstop [options] <raiddevice>*
DESCRIPTION
RAID devices are virtual devices created from two or more real block devices. This allows multiple disks to be combined into a single
filesystem, possibly with automated backup and recovery. Linux RAID devices are implemented through the md device driver.
If you're using the /proc filesystem, /proc/mdstat gives you informations about md devices status.
Currently, Linux supports linear md devices, RAID0 (striping), RAID1 (mirrroring), and RAID4 and RAID5. For information on the various lev-
els of RAID, check out:
http://ostenfeld.dk/~jakob/Software-RAID.HOWTO/
for new releases of the RAID driver check out:
ftp://ftp.fi.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/raid/alpha
Avaible commands are :
mkraid : configures (creates) md (RAID) devices in the kernel, banding multiple devices into one.
raidstart : activates (starts) an existing 'persistent' md device
raid0run : activates old nonpersistent RAID0/LINEAR md devices
raidstop : turns off an md device, and unconfigures (stops) it
By default, a systems RAID configuration is kept in /etc/raidtab, which can configure multiple RAID devices.
All of these tools work similiarly. If -a (or --all) is specified, the specified operation is performed on all of the RAID devices men-
tioned in the configuration file. Otherwise, one or more RAID devices must be specified on the command line. For example:
raid0run -a
Starts all of the 'old' RAID0 RAID devices specified in /etc/raidtab. If only /dev/md1 should be started, the following command should be
used instead:
raidstart /dev/md1
OPTIONS
-a, --all
Apply the command to all of the configurations specified in the config file.
-c, --configfile filename
Use filename as the configuration file (/etc/raidtab is used by default).
-h, --help
Displays a short usage message, then exits.
-V, --version
Displays a short version message, then exits.
NOTES
The raidtools are derived from the md-tools and raidtools packages, which were originally written by Marc Zyngier, Miguel de Icaza, Gadi
Oxman, Bradley Ward Allen, and Ingo Molnar.
BUGS
no known bugs.
