I tested RAID 1 with differents size hard disk , it is work.
You need first, execute command sfdisk -l /dev/hd_GOOD > partitions.txt Second execute command sfdisk /dev/hd_NEWDISK < partitons.txt.
After recover process normal RAID recover.
Or shorten it with a pipe; sfdisk -l /dev/hd_GOOD | sfdisk /dev/hd_NEWDISK
To be totally correct, use -uS, as when info is displayed in block units, some rounding of the size might occur.
Compare this:
[root@runchik ~]# sfdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 8923 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track Units = cylinders of 8225280 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0
Device Boot Start End #cyls #blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 0+ 12 13- 104391 83 Linux /dev/sda2 13 143 131 1052257+ 82 Linux swap /dev/sda3 144 8922 8779 70517317+ 8e Linux LVM /dev/sda4 0 - 0 0 0 Empty
With this:
[root@runchik ~]# sfdisk -uS -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 8923 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track Units = sectors of 512 bytes, counting from 0
Device Boot Start End #sectors Id System /dev/sda1 * 63 208844 208782 83 Linux /dev/sda2 208845 2313359 2104515 82 Linux swap /dev/sda3 2313360 143347994 141034635 8e Linux LVM /dev/sda4 0 - 0 0 Empty
