Subject: RAID array is gone, please help
Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2017 17:49:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cd51a878-3424-27a5-7b0b-439a67137a7d@mueller.org> (raw)
I am hoping someone here will help me. Was reading this site...
https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Linux_Raid
and it said to email this list if you've tried everything other than
mdadm --create.
I am running Ubuntu 16.04. Machine name is fred. I used webmin to create
a 4 disk RAID10 array yesterday. I moved all my data onto the array.
Today, I had to reboot my PC. The resync was still not done, but I read
online that it's OK to boot during resync. After boot, my array was
gone. I checked syslog, and it just has this line:
DeviceDisappeared event detected on md device /dev/md0
I did not partition my disks before building the array. So I believe the
array consisted of /dev/sdc, /dev/sdd, /dev/sde, and /dev/sdf.
Here's some info...

Thank you for any help you can provide.
