Thanks Larks. It is much appreciated. If the original metadata written by hostA changes by "mdadm --assemble" running on hostB, will mdmpd be able to recover the failed links on hostA when they re-surface? I am asking this because, I guess unless hostA goes down, hostA reflects the new metadata written by hostB. Will mdmpd take the new uuid into account? Not entirely OT, but devabel gets to the see the same uuid/serial numbers on the shared luns across hosts. It would have been cool if mdadm could too, right?
