i did it what u say. i was install mdadm from other machine and loat it on
faulty machine. but another  error show up (mdadm: /lib/libc.so.6: version
'GLIBC_2.2.3' not found (required by mdadm)).
i'm using red hat 6.2 and when i try to check the files (libc.so.6)...it was
there...what should i do ???
note:
* i can't access /usr and /var partition


Thanks a lot

You can build a statically linked mdadm with

   make mdadm.static

if you copy this across to your faulty machine, it should run without
needing to find any libraries.

[c4c3m]

the version mdadm that i use is mdadm-1.2.0 and i did make mdadm.static then
make install..but it still need library when i load from faulty machine ( i
try install mdadm-1.2.0 from debian 3.0 machine and red hat 9 machine). any
suggestion ??

   make mdadm.static
makes a program called "mdadm.static"
   make install
installs "mdadm".

You have to 
   make mdadm.static

and then just run the program called "mdadm.static" that was created.

RAID 5 On Linux

[c4c3m]

Dear All,

Let me introduce my self, my name is Hendri, i'm application
administrator at
www.6221.net.I find your email from the source code, i try to solve my
self but
it seems i must contact you personally to ask your help about my
problem.That
Problem are :I had installed RH 6.2 on IBM Netfinity 5100, it seems ok
for 1
year till today, the partition  doesn't Work, i have 6 partition that
doesnt
alive.4 partition contain about Oracle Data, and 3 2 more is /usr
partition(From
Now On, i think its a very Bad Idea to locate RAID 5 to /usr :(( )then i
discovered /dev/md1 - /dev/md6 won't work, and the error message on
/proc/mdstat
wont show up.i can "reconfigure" at all, what should i do for saving
all those
data, because i dont have any backup
the md modules already loaded, because some partition, for example md0
is up and
can be mounted as /, and /proc/mdstat show some information that inform
any
partition that already sucess to load, such as / -> md0, /home -> md9
beside
that, mdx partition doesnt show any information.
Could i recover that partition
(which doesnt alive?)?

Created md5
md : superblock update time inconsistency -- using the most recent one
md : kicking non - fresh sdc10 from array !
md : kicking non - fresh sdc10 from array !
md : md5 : raid array is not clean -- Starting background reconstruction
md5 : max total readhead window set to 512k
raid 5 : not enough operational devices for md5 (2/3 failed)
raid 5 : failed to run raid set md5
do_md_run() returned -22
md5 stopped

/proc/mdstat

Personalities : [raid1][raid5] read_ahead 1024 sectors

but in my /etc/fstab contain :
/dev/md0 until /dev/md9
so in /proc/mdstat doesnt apear beside md0, md9, md2, md7 and md8

When i look at the source
#define OUT_OF_DATE KERN_ERR \
"md: superblock update time inconsistency -- using the most recent
one\n"
md : kicking non - fresh sdc10 from array !
md : kicking non - fresh sdc10 from array !
menunjukkan ke source
if (ev1 < ev2) {
printk(KERN_WARNING "md: kicking non-fresh %s from
array!\n",
partition_name(rdev->dev));
kick_rdev_from_array(rdev);
continue;
}

Thanks for the attention

There isn't really enough information here to see what is happening.
Could you run
   mdadm -Eb /dev/sd*
and
   mdadm -E /dev/sd*

and send the output.

If you don't have mdadm, you can get it from
   http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
