raidctl resync at boot

[csgonan]

I am using raidctl on a v440 disk and noticed it resyncs after every boot, which takes about 30 minutes because of the size of the partition. I am concerned with what happens during the resync if "writes" happen to the disk before it is complete?

Any info would be helpful.

Thanks

Any RAID device should be smart enough to write the writes to both copies even while it is resynching, otherwise the facility would be virtually useless.

Thanks for the response. I understand but just cause it should be smart enough doesn't mean it is. Do you know of any docs that might support that.
