Cammands to check disk mirroring
- Thread starter misjay01
- Start date
You have two issues. I can answer one now. I will have
to look into the second issue later.
1. If your mirror is broken, your system would not have booted properly; e.g. you your system would have booted with disk errors and the console prompt indicating you needed to run fsck manually for fix it. (That would be my first clue something is amiss.)
2. Execute the 'mount' command. Your mirrors would have been
mounted with '.../md/...' in the mount string. Look at your /etc/vfstab to see what is mounted where. If you see
no 'md' in the mounted points, something is wrong.
These are just thoughts based on a mirrored E450 server.
