Some sort of bug. The counts are wrong and they only get worse over time.
I have read that it has been fixed. Don't recall the details, but the
current 2.6 kernel should have the fix if it exists.
I have 2.4, I have the bug(s).
I get this:
Raid Devices : 14
Total Devices : 13
State : dirty, no-errors
Active Devices : 14
Working Devices : 12
Failed Devices : 1
Spare Devices : 1

12 8 145 12 active sync /dev/sdj1
13 8 33 13 active sync /dev/sdc1
14 65 1 14 /dev/sdq1
I really have 14 raid5 disks and 1 spare. No failed disks.
