Re: md devices disappearing on system reboot

[thomas62186218@xxxxxxx]

Hi Andre,

Thank you very much for the quick response.

My /dev/md0 device is using /dev/sdd1, /dev/sdg1, /dev/sdj1, and 
/dev/sdm1.

I did:
devices=/dev/sd[dgjm]
mdadm -A --run /dev/md0 $devices

I received:
mdadm: cannot open device /dev/sdd: Device or resource busy
mdadm: /dev/sdd has no superblock - assembly aborted

Any ideas?

-Thomas

Try to specify all component devices manually:

   devices=/dev/sd[abcd]
   mdadm -A --run /dev/md0 $devices

You'll probably need to modify the content of the above devices
variable.
