RAID-1 in Ubuntu Server

Hello,
I am planning to setup RAID-1 in my home server. I have two disks. Before trying with those i wanted to try this in Virtual Box. I created Two storage disk, VDI. Then installed with RAID-1.

/dev/sda1: 12.1G, Ext4, /
/dev/sda2: 2.9G, SWAP, SWAP

/dev/sdb1: 12.1G, Ext4, /
/dev/sdb2: 2.9G, SWAP, SWAP

I have two md,

/dev/md0: sda1+sdb1
/dev/md1: sda2+sdb2

Now, i wanted to test if my one disk fails, what happens and what i can do then?

So, i turned off/shutdown the VBOX, from settings i removed one disk. If i boot now, it takes me to initramfs.

  1. What should i do then?
  2. Is it supposed to boot with one disk?
  3. How i can recover from this state?

Thank You.
