I have 6 disk in total and both /dev/sda and /dev/sdb are in RAID 1 whist the other 4 disks are part of a ZFS RAID 10.

How would I go about removing the RAID 1 on /dev/sda and /dev/sdb to free up /dev/sdb - If possible without a reboot?

cat /proc/mdstat
Code:
Personalities : [raid1] [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [raid10]
md4 : active raid1 sdb4[0] sda4[1]
      405772096 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU]
      bitmap: 0/4 pages [0KB], 65536KB chunk


md2 : active raid1 sdb2[1] sda2[0]
      41910272 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU]


unused devices: <none>
