Description Carlos Morgado 2002-01-11 15:59:38 UTC 
raiddev /dev/md1
        raid-level      1
        nr-raid-disks   2
        nr-spare-disks  0
        chunk-size      4
        persistent-superblock 1
        device          /dev/hdc6
        raid-disk       0
        device          /dev/hda6
        raid-disk       1

If I disconnect /dev/hdc raidstart complains /dev/hdc6 is not accessible and
won't start the raid device.

I if make raidtab look like
raiddev /dev/md1
        raid-level      1
        nr-raid-disks   2
        nr-spare-disks  0
        chunk-size      4
        persistent-superblock 1
        device          /dev/hda6
        raid-disk       0
        device          /dev/hdc6
        raid-disk       1
and disconnect /dev/hdc it does starts /dev/md1 in degraded mode. Note I just
changed the order of the devices in raidtab.
raidstart just stops reading raidtab when the first listed fails and marks the
md unavailable.
