I don't think so. It definitely wasn't a degraded
array - it was brand new with both disks involved
operating fine. It was also simply a data disk,
the boot and swap partitions were not on the raid.

I suspect it just didn't have kernel modules it
needed in the initramfs. It was never able to
recognize the disks (at least that's what it
seemed to be saying in the boot messages).

When I booted off an f21 live USB, it had no
problems. I'm not sure how the heck the
initramfs normally gets built on a kernel update.
I didn't see anything automatically applying
the hostonly option, but when I updated the
kernel in the fedora 21 boot partition by
chrooting into it from the live USB session,
the newly installed kernel was able to boot just
fine, so the new update apparently included
whatever was missing previously.
