I've to admit, the raid-setup is a bit odd: It's a raid1 mirror (1.2 metadata) of an SSD partition and an iSCSI LIO-target, the latter added with --write-mostly, i.e.: md1 : active raid1 sdk[2](W) sdd2[0] 220069888 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] bitmap: 1/1 pages [4KB], 524288KB chunk So during boot, the array is always degraded. md1 is a LVM PV which contain the root LV. Interestingly, when booting with a live CD (grml), the array is detected, but started _inactive_ with the SSD partition marked as a spare. Stopping the inactive array and reassembling (simply with: mdadm --assemble /dev/md1 --scan) makes it active. I guess the inactive array is the reason for the assemble failure. Btw, kernel raid autodetection is disabled. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
