Good morning,
i write you because i think you have an error on this page of FreeBSD
documentation:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/raid.html
In documentation, you miss a command in rebuilding RAID array procedure.
Let me know if i have reason.
Best regards,
Daniele Biasci.
You will first need to detach the disk from the array so that you can
safely remove it:
# atacontrol detach 3
Replace the disk.
Reattach the disk as a spare:
# atacontrol attach 3
Master: ad6 <MAXTOR 6L080J4/A93.0500> ATA/ATAPI rev 5
Slave: no device present
<MISSING>
# atacontrol addspare ar0 ad6
</MISSING>
Rebuild the array:
# atacontrol rebuild ar0
The rebuild command hangs until complete. However, it is possible to open
another terminal (using Alt+Fn) and check on the progress by issuing the
following command:
# dmesg | tail -10
[output removed]
ad6: removed from configuration
ad6: deleted from ar0 disk1
ad6: inserted into ar0 disk1 as spare
# atacontrol status ar0
ar0: ATA RAID1 subdisks: ad4 ad6 status: REBUILDING 0% completed
Wait until this operation completes
