...pothesis is that if I can somehow force udev to drop the references to the disk completely, perhaps I can remove sdg from the array and start a rebuild with the spare already available. I found these docs for Fedora: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/removing_devices.html But of course I can't do step 3, since md is refusing to give up sdg.

I am running software RAID1 on a somewhat critical server. Today I noticed one drive is giving errors. Good thing I had RAID. I planned on upgrading this server in next month or so. Just wandering if there was an easy way to fix this to avoid rushing the upgrade? Having a single drive is slowing down reads as well, I think. Thanks.
