Hello,
I have searched a lot trying to answer this.
I have a raid10 array on an openfiler box.
Personalities : [raid10]
md0 : active raid10 sde1[3] sdd1[2] sdc1[1] sdb1[0]
181760 blocks super 1.2 64K chunks 2 near-copies [4/4] [UUUU]

unused devices: <none>
Actually this is a Virtualbox machine with the same disk setup. I made 6
x 100 Mbytes disks for the test.

How can I tell which disks are mirrored?

My goal is to free the two mirror disks from md0, add two more free
disks, create a new md1 raid5 array, and move the contents from md0 to md1

Thanks in advance.
Sebastian

PS: in case it is relevant, i am adding the detailed md0 output.

That depends on the layout of your array. raid10 is not raid1+0

^^^^^^
This layout is described at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-standard_RAID_levels#Linux_ MD_RAID_10

Assuming the info there is correct, mirrored devices are [0,1] and [2,3]
