Hi there,
Having some issues here that appear to be related to left-over metadata that is not getting cleaned out when deleting RAID groups. It occurs most frequently when using "nested" RAID groups using md...for example, creating a RAID 10 using RAID 0 across multiple RAID 1's. After deleting the RAID groups and regions, I run evms_clean to wipe them further, but if I create new RAID groups with these same hard drives, EVMS 2.5.5 almost always reports a degraded state from the get-go and some other incorrect information.
I know evms_clean is undocumented, but is there source code available? Better yet, can you tell me where (what sector range perhaps) on a hard drive the metadata is being stored? I'd be happy to write a script that nukes those sectors but I need some guidance here. Thanks!
-Thomas
