Something else to check: Make sure that the /etc/fstab name for the RAID device and your=20 /etc/mdadm.conf use the same name. If you have changed the partitions on this RAID, or recreated it, make sure= to=20 run 'mdadm --zero-superblock', before you delete the partition from the=20 partition table, or you could recover it when you recreate a partition if n= ot=20 zeroed. Have a look at smartctl output to see if there is something wrong with any = of=20 the md7 disks. =2D-=20 Regards, Mick --nextPart1499604.g1udjkxdbs Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAABCAAGBQJVavlrAAoJELAdA+zwE4YeAksH/3WdVGxQPsfANeK3mh7IKnw0 0z5t7dES+7VetGNpwTuRCskB2J5MRuNnvJw5jbRHjPKyy+BFgXyCI8CtZGMdTuNd MxQAXDWYhH7QWyJHfKIN5KYfngMMoh2e+XzzHL4vR6STE+8xpUE4LC9ydpZQ1t87 LtZu7T0mw3B9sbYPA3En1OLQ0mPOSzQKl5UXIV4G58pa9W3W8xg3TwxVL52eQ2OH eggICnJKo9rj/Ve9kCkDf+w37h20nL9Pmqko9NeRB2nLEyqwb+4IiLkQiYTneyoj u0GRhC0EvRNbftAKq4etXeyZS337EE24U8czzGMtwhz+HD9RhtzbVFE7CTGkLKE= =ScTW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1499604.g1udjkxdbs--
