Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Revive RAID 0 Array From Buffalo Duo NAS Post 303026465 by gull04 on Wednesday 28th of November 2018 07:34:14 AM

Hi,

Yes I have the drift here now, I suspect that you should have specified --level=1 in the mdadm command. I am pretty sure that destroying and recreating the mirror will leave the data intact - but I'd dd the disk to an image "clonezilla" or something similar if you have the tin.

@Hicksd8, at the bottom end yes it's not that common for hardware RAID to support only at device level. When it comes to software, whole different ball game - take a look at LVM, VxFS, SVM or in this case mdadm. You can slice and dice any way that you want.

Regards

Gull04

vxdestroy_lvmroot(1M)													     vxdestroy_lvmroot(1M)

NAME
vxdestroy_lvmroot - remove LVM root disk and associated LVM volume group SYNOPSIS
vxdestroy_lvmroot [-v] [-b] lvm_root_disk DESCRIPTION
The vxdestroy_lvmroot command tears down and removes the LVM volume group associated with the specified physical disk. This is done by removing the volumes in the volume group and then removing the volume group. OPTIONS
-b Invokes the setboot command to change the primary boot disk to the VxVM root disk from which the system was booted (if the pri- mary boot disk is not already set to this disk). The alternate boot device remains unchanged. If the -v option is also speci- fied, the settings of the primary and alternate boot devices are displayed. -v Outputs verbose messages including a timestamp that indicates major operations being performed. ARGUMENTS
lvm_root_disk Specifies the device name of the LVM root disk that is to be destroyed, along with its entire volume group. EXAMPLES
This example shows the vxdestroy_lvmroot command invoked in its simpliest form: /etc/vx/bin/vxdestroy_lvmroot c5t1d0 # /etc/vx/bin/vxdestroy_lvmroot -v -b c3t0d0 Are you sure about destroying c3t0d0 (imported on VG /dev/vg02) ?
