No. Reconstrution should start automatically. There is no mechanism to start it from user-space. You could try to hot-remove and hot-add again, but if it didn't work the first time it is unlikely to work the second time. I would appear to be a kernel bug. Do you know if redhat:2.4.18-14 contains any patches particular to md? Are there any kernel messages? An Oops or something?
