RAID missing after power loss, Filesystem missing, drives appear physically fine.

  • So, the maintenance man flipped the breaker for my server a couple times and now it's showing my RAID is missing, Filesystem missing, no docker containers etc. All physical drives seem present and in the same S.M.A.R.T. status as prior. My RAID is comprised of 8 drives from 3-4TB each I believe mostly WD RED. Please help, here's some info...

    Changed the title of the thread from “Breaker flipped a couple times, now RAID missing, Filesystem missing, drives appear fine.” to “RAID missing after power loss, Filesystem missing, drives appear physically fine.”.
  • Well it's pretty quiet here for some reason but I finally found a solution and restored my RAID, here are the commands in case someone else runs into a similar problem.


    mdadm --stop /dev/md127

    mdadm --assemble /dev/md127 /dev/sd[bcdefghi] --verbose --force


    After this one of my drives showed (removed) so I just added it back with this command.

    mdadm --add /dev/md127 /dev/sdf
