RAID-10: changing one (non-failed) drive for another
am 05.09.2010 22:08:30 von Ondrej Jombik[ Please Cc me in the answer as I'm not in the list ]
We have working mdadm RAID-10 (2 near, 32k chunks) with these drives:
sda: 250G
sdb: 250G
sdc: 160G
sdd: 160G
Since we would like get more free space, so we need to change our 160G
drives (sdc, sdd) to bigger one.
Is there a way how to switch/change drive in RAID-10 without having RAID
degraded for a while? I simply do not want manually fail any of these
drives.
Option --grow for mdadm is not working for RAID-10 (this is probably
desirable feature). I wonder if there is anything different which we
might give a try.
Thank you
Ondrej
