      is it a software raid or hardware raid ?
      for hardware raid there should be a tool from the manufacturer that
      tells you the state of your raid.
      If its software, I doubt, what was used to create it.

        has anyone heard about that big ass search engine that makes millions of dollars by letting people find answers to stupid questions??

        google??

        why have raid 5 if you do not know how to use it?

        hehe sorry had to burn you

        other than that the answer darksoul gave you is very accurate.

              It is very hard to install/setup RAID5 on a working server.

              In my experience its really only possible during the setup part.

              Sounds like something fishy is going on - the easiest way to check is do:

              dmesg | grep -i raid

              It should show something like:

              scsi0 : LSI Logic MegaRAID driver
              scsi[0]: scanning scsi channel 0 [Phy 0] for non-raid devices
              Vendor: MegaRAID Model: LD 0 RAID1 69G Rev: 516A
