I have a one linux box on IBM hardware with Raid 5 using 3 HDD.
Last week one hdd crashed and server going to reconstruction mode, now I'm not able to take terminal access. Kindly suggest me the steps how can i change HDD without restarting server.
Hi Team,
Yes, this IBM hardware supported to hot swap, and below error continuous showing on screen "Raid5 : Can not start dirty degraded array for md2 failed to run raid set md2. Md2 raid array is not clean -- starting background reconstruction.
Raid5 : Disk failure on sdc7. disabling device, operation continue on 2 devices"
Please post the output of this command so that we can see what is going on. I am not as familiar with software (mdadm) raid as I probably should be, but will give it a shot to help you out.

Earlier as I write, I'm unable to access the server and only error message showing on window. "Raid5 : Can not start dirty degraded array for md2 failed to run raid set md2. Md2 raid array is not clean -- starting background reconstruction.
