Hi,
i Know i had to search for "degraded RAID 1", but i ask better once more bevor my Data ist lost (i have a backup but i dont want to set up all the OMV shares/setup for the data drive). This time i have a SSD vor the System (sdc) and one 2TB drive for the Data (sda). Now i have a second 2TB drive (sdb) and want to mirror the existing drive in a RAID 1. Is this the right way!?:
- Create a degraded RAID 1 device /dev/md0, using one single drive /dev/sdb, enter the following at the command prompt:
- copy the data from /dev/sda to the RAID array while it is running in degraded mode. Whats the best to do this? rsync?
- Add /dev/sda to the mirror by entering the following at the command prompt:
- Monitor the build progress by entering the following at the command prompt:
Must i partioning the new drive /dev/sdb with one great Partition bevor i start?
Many thanks for help.
