Problem

    • Offizieller Beitrag

    I've had to copy this 'mdadm.conf' file taken from old OMV3 to the current OMV6

    No, if the array is recognised in OMV6 then it should be possible to create an mdadm conf in OMV6 from the command line


    I'll try and clarify what I said #19


    You have OMV6 working, shutdown the server and connect your raid drives, mdadm (which loads during OMV's boot process) should detect those and begin rebuilding the array.

    Once the server is running login to OMV's GUI and under Raid Management the array should show as rebuilding


    That is all you have to do at this moment, if this works at least we know that OMV6 has recognised the drives and has begun reassembling the array.


    Likewise, if you get nothing displaying in Raid Management then we have to approach this differently

    Software RAID simply says nothing to show (Keine Daten zum Anzeigen.)

    All that tells you is there is no filesystem, which is on top of the software raid, you need to look in Storage -> Software Raid, if nothing shows in there then we are back to the command line

  • Well, I said in post #22 'Software RAID simply says nothing to show' is exactly what I got from 'Storage --> Software Raid'. I guess the circle is now closed. Whatelse can I do to contribute to the proceedings? Please let me know.

    Regards Peter

  • Good morning,

    logged in as root, the devs had changed from sd[bceg] to sd[bcdg].

    Started the mdadm command output is;

    Code
    looking for devices for md0
    dev/sdb is busy - skipping   <---  and this is signaled for the 4 drives, nothing else

    I've tried to re-direct mdadm's output into a text file, but it didn't work. So I had to type this manually, not nice! Is there another way to do this?

    Thanks Peter

    Apologies my bad, need to stop mdadm first as it will be running;


    mdadm --stop /dev/md0 you should get a notification about mdadm stopped, then proceed with the command in #27

    I've tried to re-direct mdadm's output into a text file, but it didn't work.

    Please don't use a text box, us a code box this </> on the menu, then copy and paste into the code box, text files have to be downloaded

  • All I got from the stop cmnd is: no such file or dir

    The only entry in /dev related to md* is md127 and this file is empty.

    In post #21 I asked to "copy this 'mdadm.conf' file taken from old OMV3 to the current OMV6" .

    Excuse me if I'm telling garbage I just try to contribute. So far, I didn't do anything on my own exept what you requested.

    I attached mdstst listing in the hope it may be of interest.

    TBH I have no idea if that would work, it would work if you have your old OMV3 install with the missing array reference in the mdadm conf if you want to try it with OMV6 you will need to reboot after


    I will not download a txt file, copy and paste output into a code box as below;

    This is a code for command line output
