 |
|
I have raid1 setup for my Gentoo data.
My raid has broken a couple of times recently due to system being powered off unexpectedly.
mdadm is not sending me an email that the raid is being re-built.
I know my mail is working as I receive daily cron emails in the same account.
Whilst mdadm can scan and find the raid1 partitions, I have explicitly defined them, as follows, in /etc/mdadm.conf
| Code: | # Setup to have consistent device names by Lyall Pearce (LRP)
# boot
# Number Major Minor RaidDevice State
# 0 8 33 0 active sync /dev/sdc1
# 1 8 49 1 active sync /dev/sdd1
ARRAY /dev/md126 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=057138d3:f4319c05:cb201669:f728008a
# root
# Number Major Minor RaidDevice State

MAILADDR admin@my.email.address

I have /etc/init.d/mdadm set to run at default.
My /etc/conf.d/mdadm has MDADM_OPTS="--syslog"
I can see mdadm is running | Code: | | root 2899 1 0 09:53 ? 00:00:00 mdadm --monitor --scan --daemonise --pid-file /var/run/mdadm.pid --syslog |
Any suggestions?

I guess I should mention that I have tried running | Code: | | mdadm --monitor --scan --test |
and I receive the emails.
I have also tried running | Code: | | mdadm --monitor --scan --syslog --test |
and I receive the emails as well as see the syslog entries.
I have | Code: | # eix ssmtp
[I] mail-mta/ssmtp
