LS WXL 4TB - Data-Raid passed out

[itzamee]

Hey there

the topic says it all, i guess. but let me post some more details. The point is: I dont know where to start. For me its sounds, as if something is totally wrong with my device-configuration The missing raid is /dev/md2. And from the output (see below) i guess, this was a RAID Type 0 with the devices /dev/sda and /dev/sda6. You also can see this from the size of those disks - both are 2 TByte.

First i tried to re-assamble with  mdadm --assemble --scan -v

After that I tried to re-create the missing array with

Code Select Expand

mdadm --create /dev/md2 --level=0 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sda /dev/sda6

This led to

Code Select Expand

mdadm: device /dev/sda not suitable for any style of array

This is what df -h says:

Code Select Expand

/dev/md1                  4.7G      1.0G      3.4G  23% /
udev                     10.0M     96.0k      9.9M   1% /dev
/dev/ram1                15.0M    152.0k     14.9M   1% /mnt/ram
/dev/md0                969.2M     34.4M    934.8M   4% /boot

OK, and this is the output from mdadm --examine ---scan:
