raidctl - progress?

  • Follow


So far I like raidctl and hardware RAID on the v245.

Is there a way to to find out the progress of syncing disks?

Is there a way to find out which disk is syncing to which disk?

If I'm half-way through syncing the disks and I reboot does it start
resyncing all over?

Thanks.

Probably!  In order for the raid controller to KNOW that a RAID set is 
in a consistent state, it must be dismounted while in a consistent 
state.  If you reboot while the RAID set is in an inconsistent state, 
the raid controller must start all over again.  It can take hours to 
synch a couple of big disks; been there, done that. REALLY BIG disks 
might take days!

If you need reliable access to this RAID set, an investment in a 
suitable UPS and an emergency generator might be an excellent idea.
