201-450 Exam - Question 8


Which single command simulates a failed device within a RAID 5 array?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

To simulate a failed device within a RAID 5 array using the mdadm command, you can mark the device as faulty. The appropriate command for this is 'mdadm --fail /dev/md0 /dev/sdc1'. This command tells mdadm to mark the specified device (/dev/sdc1) within the specified RAID array (/dev/md0) as failed, which simulates a device failure.

Not true. Both --force and --fail exist, but --force doesn't do what the question suggest. D is correct.

The answer is D. There is no --force-faulty option, but we have --set-faulty which works the same way as --fail option

The correct answer is D Here from the man page; -f, --fail Mark listed devices as faulty. As well as the name of a device file, the word detached or a set name like set-A can be given. The former will cause any device that has been detached from the system to be marked as failed. It can then be removed.
