Hi all,
this is not a "kernel-only" question but maybe someone who knows 3ware raid controllers (and the driver) could help me.
Currently my 3ware 6xxx RAID controller tells me that my RAID-Array (stripe-set with two maxtor 120 GB disks) is incomplete (even if I delete the array and create a new one - after a reboot the array is marked "incomplete").
The BIOS of the 3ware controller shows me both disks, but one is always makred as "available" and the raid-array is missing one drive.
The strange part: the Linux kernel doesn't care about this and mounts my array correctly! And the array works so far - it seems to me, don't know if there will be any surprises the next days ;-)
Now... should I care about this? Is my array broken or not? And why does the Linux driver think my array is ok and the 3ware BIOS not?
Thanks for any help, Michael
