[22:19] How easy is it to use the server install CD to set up a RAID 5 with 3+1 drives, but only physically have three drives at install-time (and drop in the fourth drive at some later point)? [22:20] In my setup, the fourth drive is going to be holding the data from an old system, which I'll first want to copy onto my new system before it gets integrated into the array. [22:21] mdadm should support a hotswap device [22:21] It's not hotswap, per se; it's a four-drive array with one parity drive, only I'm only going to be using three of those drives when actually installing. [22:22] sorry, i'm not familiar with R5 [22:22] Ah, OK. [22:22] only have ever setup 1 and 10 [22:22] What I currently have is effectively 10, though I'm using LVM to join the two RAID 1 devices rather than a RAID 0. [22:24] So the plan is to break one of those RAID 1s by swapping one of the drives for one of my new drives, copy everything onto the new drive, swap out the other three for my three new drives, make a new RAID 5 with those, copy over the data, then integrate the drive-with-old-data into the RAID 5. [22:25] It'd be nice if I could do much of that directly via the installer, rather than having to switch over to a different vterm and mess with mdadm and the vgstuff myself. [22:25] Especially since I don't entirely trust myself to set up the RAID 1 boot partition properly to ensure that I'll still boot regardless of which drive fails. [22:26] Hmm, I could create a new virtual machine to model the system and see how difficult setting things up is on it... === crohakon|afk is now known as crohakon [22:55] OK, the RAID setup in the server install CD will let me create my first device illegally; that is, I set up my RAID 1 boot area with 4 devices but don't actually assign the fourth spot (since it'll be added with the last drive). But when trying to make my RAID 5 with 4 slots and only 3 actual RAID physical volumes left, it won't let me even try. [22:56] Any advice for working around that? Or will I have to just do everything manually and then scan the drives to get the areas to install onto? [23:17] Before I go on, does anyone here know much about RAID? [23:17] I know there's "don't ask to ask, just ask," but if the room's empty... [23:19] how can I calculate the exact size of a partition? [23:23] cemc: depending how exact, df or fdisk will tell you [23:24] trimeta: The room is not empty. So ask your real question [23:24] jmarsden: I'd been asking before about related things with no answer; anyway, here it is. [23:24] I'm trying to set up a RAID 1, but I'm getting the error "mdadm: /dev/sda1 is too small: 0K". fdisk /dev/sda confirms that sda1 isn't that small; what's going on? [23:25] This was starting from a blank disk and creating the partitions in fdisk; nothing else has been done with the disk. [23:27] trimeta: Is /dev/sda1 really the device node you think it is? Googling for that error shows several threads about it, did you already read them? [23:27] It's the one I created with fdisk, yes. [23:27] Type fd, before you ask. [23:28] Um. So the device node is definitely a block device major 8 minor 1, you checked? [23:29] fdisk /dev/sda shows me the two partitions on that drive, sda1 and sda2. [23:29] And neither are zero in size. [23:29] trimeta: That is not what I asked you at all. [23:29] Did you verify that the device node /dev/sda1 is a block device with major 8 and minor 1? [23:30] How would I do that? [23:30] Please don't answer "yes" when you mean "I don't know"... what does ls -l /dev/sda1 output? [23:31] brw-rw---- 1 root root 9, 127 Nov 28 18:11 /dev/sda1 [23:31] Bingo. 9,127 ? [23:31] (Not copy-pasted per se, since I don't have shared buffer, but that's what it looks like.) [23:32] Has this system used a SCSI disk as sda before? [23:32] It's a virtual machine with completely fresh disks connected to the virtual SATA controller. [23:32] So I have no idea what effect that has on this. [23:33] I figured that before I tried to do something complex with real hardware, I'd see what problems I ran into when using VirtualBox. [23:34] Hmmm. Something feels odd here. In a (VirtualBox) VM here, /dev/sda is 8,0 and /dev/sda1 is 8,1. Yours is 9,127... [23:34] Somehow your set of device nodes is ... unusual, and that is what is causing this error. [23:34] Just ls'ing sda, sdb, and sdc gives me 8,0, 8,16, and 8,32. [23:35] OK, so sda is 8,0 at least. As a "dirty" fix, try sudo mknod /dev/sda1 b 8 1 [23:35] and then try creating the array again. [23:35] Might need to sort out sda2 similarly. [23:35] File exists. [23:35] OK, rm it and then mknod it. [23:36] sda2 is correct, oddly enough. [23:36] OK, removing it and recreating it seems to have worked, at least insofar as ls is concerned...let's see what mdadm says. [23:37] Seems to have worked. Thanks! [23:37] No problem.
