- Check if the kernel already removed the faild drive from the arrays:
# mdadm --detail /dev/md0- If not, remove it by hand:
# mdadm /dev/md0 --remove /dev/sda1 - If in an array a partition of the failed drive is not marked as faulty, before removing run
# mdadm --manage /dev/md1 --fail /dev/sda2
- If not, remove it by hand:
- Insert a new physical disk
- Copy the partition table to the new drive from its mirror:
- For gpt partition table:
sgdisk -R /dev/sda /dev/sdb(fromsdbtosda)sgdisk -G /dev/sdb(to make the new disk's GUID different the mirror's one)
- For mbr partition table:
# sfdisk --dump /dev/sdb | sfdisk /dev/sda
- For gpt partition table:
