If it detects any raid drives with that command that means there is still metadata left on the drives.  The command to erase metadata with dmraid doesn't work very well, you are better off erasing it from your controller's bios.

Hi James,

what issue did you detect with the -rD option to delete metadata ?
Can you provide test cases for it ?

Thanks,
Heinz
