Linux软阵列 用mdadm做RAID实验
用mdadm做raid实验时遇到一个问题，一直没有搞定，在网上一直也没有查到，准备问那个培训老师，结果等了半天硬是没有等到，然后又在google上搜索，终于在一个老外的BBS里发现问题原因了
问题如下：不用多加解释，相信大家都能看懂
[root@localhost ~]# mdadm -C /dev/md5 -l 5 -n 3 -x 1 /dev/sdb[5-8]
mdadm: Cannot open /dev/sdb5: Device or resource busy
mdadm: Cannot open /dev/sdb6: Device or resource busy
mdadm: Cannot open /dev/sdb7: Device or resource busy
mdadm: Cannot open /dev/sdb8: Device or resource busy
这是我第一台虚拟机，后面换了一台干净的计算机，然后实验的，单独加了三块硬盘，和前面问题基本类似，不过就是三块硬盘和三个分区的问题。
寻找问题的过程中，在网上有的人说是由于主板不支持，我感觉不大可能，还有说内核不支持的，其实最终的问题根本不是这些，而是由于/dev/md*设备被占用，只要用mdadm --stop 命令把该设备停止即可，问题就可以解决。下面是过程。
[root@localhost ~]# mdadm --stop /dev/md5
mdadm: stopped /dev/md5
[root@localhost ~]# mdadm -C /dev/md5 -l 5 -n 3 /dev/sd[bcd]
mdadm: /dev/sdb appears to be part of a raid array:
level=raid5 devices=3 ctime=Wed Dec 9 03:37:11 2009
mdadm: /dev/sdc appears to be part of a raid array:
level=raid5 devices=3 ctime=Wed Dec 9 03:37:11 2009
mdadm: /dev/sdd appears to be part of a raid array:
level=raid5 devices=3 ctime=Wed Dec 9 03:37:11 2009
Continue creating array?

mdadm: array /dev/md5 started.
