Steps to fix a hard drive failure that is in a raid 1 configuration:

[root@myServer ~]# cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md0 : active raid1 sdb1[0] sda1[2](F) 128384 blocks [2/1] [U_] md1 : active raid1 sdb2[0] sda2[2](F) 16779776 blocks [2/1] [U_] md2 : active raid1 sdb3[0] sda3[2](F) 139379840 blocks [2/1] [U_] unused devices: <none>

To see which disk is failed:

The following demonstrates what a failed disk looks like:

[root@myServer ~]# smartctl -a /dev/sda smartctl 5.42 2011-10-20 r3458 [x86_64-linux-2.6.18-371.1.2.el5] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-11 by Bruce Allen, http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net

Short INQUIRY response, skip product id A mandatory SMART command failed: exiting. To continue, add one or more '-T permissive' options.

Selective self-test flags (0x0):

 After scanning selected spans, do NOT read-scan remainder of disk.

If Selective self-test is pending on power-up, resume after 0 minute delay.

So /dev/sda has failed.

Here are the steps:

Take note of the GOOD disk serial number so I leave that one in when I replace it: Serial Number: 9RA6DZP8

Mark and remove failed disk from raid:

[root@myServer ~]# mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --fail /dev/sda1 mdadm: set /dev/sda1 faulty in /dev/md0

[root@myServer ~]# mdadm --manage /dev/md1 --fail /dev/sda2 mdadm: set /dev/sda2 faulty in /dev/md1

[root@myServer ~]# mdadm --manage /dev/md2 --fail /dev/sda3 mdadm: set /dev/sda3 faulty in /dev/md2

[root@myServer ~]# mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --remove /dev/sda1 mdadm: hot removed /dev/sda1

[root@myServer ~]# mdadm --manage /dev/md1 --remove /dev/sda2 mdadm: hot removed /dev/sda2

[root@myServer ~]# mdadm --manage /dev/md2 --remove /dev/sda3 mdadm: hot removed /dev/sda3

Make sure grub is installed on the good disk and that grub.conf is updated:


[root@myServer ~]# grub-install /dev/sdb Installation finished. No error reported. This is the contents of the device map /boot/grub/device.map. Check if this is correct or not. If any of the lines is incorrect, fix it and re-run the script `grub-install'.

  1. this device map was generated by anaconda

(hd0) /dev/sda (hd1) /dev/sdb

Take note of the which hd partition corresponds with the good disk, ie hd1 in this case.

[root@myServer ~]# vim /boot/grub/menu.lst

Add fallback=1 right after default=0 Go to the bottom section where you should find some kernel stanzas. Copy the first of them and paste the stanza before the first existing stanza; replace root (hd0,0) with root (hd1,0) Should look like this:

[...] title CentOS (2.6.18-128.el5)

       root (hd1,0)
       kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-128.el5 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
       initrd /initrd-2.6.18-128.el5.img

title CentOS (2.6.18-128.el5)

       root (hd0,0)
       kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-128.el5 ro root=/dev/
       initrd /initrd-2.6.18-128.el5.img

Save and quit

[root@myServer ~]# mv /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img.bak

[root@myServer ~]# mkinitrd /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)

[root@myServer ~]# init 0

Swap the bad drive with the new drive and boot the machine.

Once it's booted:

Check the device names with cat /proc/mdstat and/or fisk -l. The newly installed drive on myServer was named /dev/sda

[root@myServer ~]# modeprobe raid1

[root@myServer ~]# modeprobe linear

[root@myServer ~]# sfdisk -d /dev/sdb | sfdisk --force /dev/sda

[root@myServer ~]# sfdisk -l => sanity check

[root@myServer ~]# mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --add /dev/sda1 mdadm: added /dev/sda1

[root@myServer ~]# mdadm --manage /dev/md1 --add /dev/sda2 mdadm: added /dev/sda2

[root@myServer ~]# mdadm --manage /dev/md2 --add /dev/sda3 mdadm: added /dev/sda3

That's it! :)
