One of my servers reports this to me tonight:

Output of /proc/mdstat

If I read this correctly, I have one failed partition on the 
secondary drive - yes?

I would like to remove the failed drive and reinsert the same drive 
and let it rebuild. I expect they simply got out of sync (possible?)

Do I have to remove the drive to do this or can I simply tell it to 
rebuild now?

Suggestions appreciated.

- Bill
