So I need to do a full backup and make a backup that I can restore to a new drive. Then delete the RAID, and re-create the raid, then restore from the backup. Dang, I sure wanted to just get it to re-mirror itself.
When cloned it probably had the same ID as the other disk which would confuse the system. The old mirror may have had the same effect on the ID numbers since it came off a consumer hardware RAID.
