Figure 7.7 File System Settings
As with conventional partitioning, set the file system to use as well as encryption and
the mount point for the RAID volume. Checking Persistent Superblock ensures that
the RAID partitions are recognized as such when booting. After completing the confi-
guration with Finish, see the /dev/md0 device and others indicated with RAID in the
expert partitioner.
7.2.3 Troubleshooting
Check the file /proc/mdstats to find out whether a RAID partition has been de-
stroyed. In the event of a system failure, shut down your Linux system and replace the
defective hard disk with a new one partitioned the same way. Then restart your system
and enter the command mdadm /dev/mdX --add /dev/sdX. Replace 'X' with
your particular device identifiers. This integrates the hard disk automatically into the
RAID system and fully reconstructs it.
