It's been fixed. The drives were ok but nothing would reassemble. The drives were marked as faulty so I followed the suggestions here: http://anders.com/cms/411/Linux/Software.RAID/inactive/mdadm

Thanks!

The setup is 4 1TB drives running RAID10. I was using the Gnome Disk Utility to verify the integrity of the array (which is a 500MB mirrored md0 and the rest a R10 md1).

I believe one of the drives is bad but prior to the system going offline it showed that 2 drives were detached from the array but healthy. A reboot results in a panic complaining that not enough mirrors are available.

Is there a method to mount this array from a live CD so I can export the VM images. I have backups of the important ones but I'd lose 18 hours of data and a new PBX VM that was just finished but not backed up yet.

I've been reading and testing various suggestions from the web but until I get this unit back up all phones and E-Mail are down, which leads to a slight panic, which makes it difficult to read and understand :)

The backup server is at another location so I'm trying to recover first.

Any direction would be appreciated.

Thanks,
