Linux 磁盘旧RAID信息导致不能格式化和mount实战总结

服务器上加了一块旧硬盘，打算格式化以后放点历史数据，结果用fdisk 报错：

/dev/sda1 isapparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!

一般来说，这种情况是该盘已经被系统使用或者挂载到其他地方，使用mount 和df –lh确认，这个盘没有使用。

Google了一下，说是受以前盘上遗留的RAID信息的影响，系统会根据残留的信息自动发现raid，由于系统的自动识别，硬盘被虚拟地组建成了raid（即便没有真实raid存在），这就提示磁盘正在被使用，硬盘无法格式化。

确认了一下：

[root@web1 ~]# dmraid -s

ERROR: ddf1: wrong # of devices in RAID set"ddf1_4035305a8680b02520202020202020209a33c30a3a354a45" [1/2] on/dev/sda

释放对磁盘的使用可以使用如下方法：

1） dmsetup remove_all

[root@web1 mapper]# dmsetup remove_all

# dmsetup remove /dev/mapper/[device]

[root@web1 mapper]# dmsetup status

No devices found

2) 用dmraid来disableactive状态：dmraid -a no

[root@web1 conf]# dmraid -a no

ERROR: ddf1: wrong # of devices in RAID set"ddf1_4035305a8680b02520202020202020209a33c30a3a354a45" [1/2] on/dev/sda

--验证：

[root@web1 ~]# dmraid -s

释放以后我们就可以对磁盘格式化，在进行挂载了。

但这样在系统重启之后，还是会识别到磁盘的RAID信息，依旧不能正常mount。尝试清除磁盘上RAID的信息。

--使用dmraid –x：

[root@web1 ~]# dmraid -x

ERROR: ddf1: wrong # of devices in RAID set"ddf1_4035305a8680b02520202020202020209a33c30a3a354a45" [1/2] on/dev/sda

--使用：dmraid -rE

[root@web1 mapper]# dmraid -rE

都不能成功清除，这样即使我把mount信息添加到/etc/fstab里，在启动启动之后，也不能正常mount。所以选择了一种方法。

在/etc/rc.d/rc.local 文件中添加了如下信息：

dmraid -a no

sleep 5

mount /dev/sda1 /backup

这样就可以自动挂载了。
