I have a HP ProLiant DL360 G4p with a HP RAID card. The RAID card is connected to an external drive bay with 14 identical SCSI drives. With the RAID card I configured 7 mirrored pairs, which I then striped in software RAID (just messing around).
The problem is I had the array working just fine, then after a reboot there was a problem with one of the drives (bay 2), so I replaced it (hot swap). Previously, that pair had been mirrored, so swapping the drive just started remirroring. The array should continue to work fine. But I can't mount it! The problem seems to be that a file under /dev/cciss is missing. I have: /dev/cciss/c1d0 /dev/cciss/c1d0p1 /dev/cciss/c1d1 /dev/cciss/c1d1p1 /dev/cciss/c1d2 /dev/cciss/c1d2p1 /dev/cciss/c1d3 /dev/cciss/c1d3p1 /dev/cciss/c1d4 /dev/cciss/c1d4p1 /dev/cciss/c1d5 /dev/cciss/c1d5p1 /dev/cciss/c1d6
...but no /dev/cciss/c1d6p1! I don't know where it went. The disk is okay, and I can run fdisk and see the partition, which also seems fine. How do I re-create "c1d6p1"? There's a symlink I created to it: /dev/block/105:97. Do I use MAKEDEV? The information in ".blkid.tab" seems correct, as far as I can tell (which isn't far).
Please help!
Thanks, Kevin
