Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Identify failed disk in Linux RAID Post 302562852 by admin_xor on Saturday 8th of October 2011 03:31:42 PM

Well I cannot help you determine what exact physical drive got corrupted; but, I surely can help you figure out which drive in the RAID array is faulty.

It's simple. there are a lot of ways to do this:

Code:
mdadm --detail /dev/md1 | grep faulty

or,
Code:
dmesg | grep -i "disk failure"

For Linux RAID, I always consult http://raid.wiki.kernel.org/

Hope this helps!
