Operating Systems Linux Ubuntu Samba share on software raid1 Post 303022419 by Peasant on Friday 31st of August 2018 11:13:18 AM

So, as far as i understood - one disk removed array works, other disk array does not work ?
Did you use fdisk or (g)parted on those disks at all to put raid type ?

As for samba and your actual requirement, that is layers above. One at the time Smilie
First you need your md device to be redundant and working after reboot.

What is the HW on that server, since you can unplug disks live ?
I would advise against that practice to test redundancy, if not specifically supported.

You see disk fail in various ways, but rarely unplugging the cable or hitting it with an axe.
Testing will prove difficult Smilie
But from my experience @ home, i had an RAID1 array, one disk died of natural causes (old age) and the mdadm system did the job.
This was some time ago tho..

Can you show output of :
Code:
fdisk -l /dev/sdb
fdisk -l /dev/sdc

Have you considered using ZFS on ubuntu ?
It should really ease up the process of creating a mirror and managing it in a long run.

NAME
cmdk - common disk driver SYNOPSIS
cmdk@target, lun : [ partition | slice ] DESCRIPTION
The cmdk device driver is a common interface to various disk devices. The driver supports magnetic fixed disks and magnetic removable disks. The block-files access the disk using the system's normal buffering mechanism and are read and written without regard to physical disk records. There is also a "raw" interface that provides for direct transmission between the disk and the user's read or write buffer. A sin- gle read or write call usually results in one I/O operation; raw I/O is therefore considerably more efficient when many bytes are transmit- ted. The names of the block files are found in /dev/dsk; the names of the raw files are found in /dev/rdsk. I/O requests to the magnetic disk must have an offset and transfer length that is a multiple of 512 bytes or the driver returns an EINVAL error. Slice 0 is normally used for the root file system on a disk, slice 1 as a paging area (for example, swap), and slice 2 for backing up the entire fdisk partition for Solaris software. Other slices may be used for usr file systems or system reserved area. Fdisk partition 0 is to access the entire disk and is generally used by the fdisk(1M) program. FILES
/dev/dsk/cndn[s|p]n block device (IDE) /dev/rdsk/cndn[s|p]n raw device (IDE) where: cn controller n dn lun n (0-7) sn UNIX system slice n (0-15) pn fdisk partition(0) /kernel/drv/cmdk 32-bit kernel module. /kernel/drv/amd64/cmdk 64-bit kernel module. ATTRIBUTES
