mdX and mismatch_cnt when building an array
CentOS 6.3, x86_64.
I have noticed when building a new software RAID-6 array on CentOS 6.3
that the mismatch_cnt grows monotonically while the array is building:
# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid6] [raid5] [raid4]
md11 : active raid6 sdg[5] sdf[4] sde[3] sdd[2] sdc[1] sdb[0]

Problem getting x86_64 dom0 to boot on a FC4 machine
I''m struggling to get Xen to boot on a FC4 Opteron box. I''ve included the
tail of the boot log below [1]. I suspect that the problems relates to the
software RAID 1 root and boot partitions, and how it relates to the initrd
image. The RAID volumes fail to mount.
I compiled the Xen snapshot from the 23rd September, and the only change
I''ve made is to enable the

Re: questions regarding file-system optimization for sortware-RAID array
Andreas,
why is it relevant only in case of RAID5 or RAID6?

questions regarding file-system optimization for sortware-RAID array
Hi,
I created a RAID1 array of two physical HDD's with chunk size of 64KiB
under Debian "wheezy" using mdadm. As a next step, I would like to create
an ext3(or ext4) file-system to this RAID1 array using mke2fs utility.
According to RAID-related tutorials, I should create the file-system like
this:
# mkfs.ext3 -v -L myarray -m 0.5 -b 4096 -E stride=16,stripe-width=32

Upgrade to new drives in raid, larger
Hi all,
As part of my raid experience, I have yet to have to do this, but was
wondering how you guys would attempt it.
I have 3 drives in a raid 1, with one as a hot spare.
They are 250gb with all space used by two raid devices, 1 with boot, the
other with LVMs filling them up.
Now, lets say down the road I want to put in 500gb drives and replace
them....yikes.
I was thinking of taking out the

Syslinux 5.00 - Doesn't boot my system / Not passing the kernel options to the kernel?
Hi,
I encounter a problem with Syslinux 5.00 I cannot really describe. So I
created two small videos:

Re: questions regarding file-system optimization for sortware-RAID array
Note that stride and stripe width only make sense for RAI-5/6 arrays.
For RAID-1 it doesn't really matter.

Re: questions regarding file-system optimization for sortware-RAID array
The stripe and stride options do two things:
- shift block and inode bitmaps in each group to be on different disks
- align the block allocation to the stripe and stride boundaries to
avoid read-modify-write in RAID
The first one is irrelevant if the flex_bg option is used, since it already packs
the bitmaps together and achieves the same effect.
The second is meaningless for RAID-1 since

LVM problem after adding new (md) PV
Hello,
I have a weird problem after adding new PV do LMV volume group.
It seems the error comes out only during boot time. Please read the story.
I have couple of 1U machines. They all have two, four or more Fujitsu-Siemens
SAS 2,5" disks, which are bounded in Raid1 pairs with Linux mdadm.
First pair of disks has always two arrays (md0, md1). Small md0 is used
for booting and the rest - md1

Centos + Xen 3.0 + Root on md = bad
Howdy folks,
I''m trying to boot Xen 3.0 on a Centos 4(.2) system with root
on a software raid1 volume. When booting the Xen kernel, ''raidautorun'' in
the /init nash script fails to assemble either the root md or the raid5 md
containing my LVM volumes.
If I move root to /dev/hda1, the system boots
fine. raidautorun still fails to assemble the md devices, but mdadm

LVM on dom0?
I''ve spent the past while researching this but I''m just not finding a
solution. I''ve been trying to get my xen kernel booting on a pretty much stock
CentOS 4.4 installation. I installed Xen from src rpm and installed all the
requisite software and I''m sure it''s with the ram disk but I can''t figure out
how to resolve this.

iSCSI root
As promised, here''s what I did to get iSCSI root running under XenU under Debian 3.1 (Sarge):
Be running linux 2.6 under XenU.
Build XenU with SCSI disk support (I did them as modules)
Get linux-iscsi 4.0.1.8 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-iscsi/
Build it according to the instructions there (i found it a bit tricky) and install under your XenU

more software raid questions
hi all!
back in Aug several of you assisted me in solving a problem where one
of my drives had dropped out of (or been kicked out of) the raid1 array.
something vaguely similar appears to have happened just a few mins ago,
upon rebooting after a small update. I received four emails like this,
one for /dev/md0, one for /dev/md1, one for /dev/md125 and one for
