A few questions:
a) what kernel version are you using?
b) what mdadm version are you using?
c) what messages conscerning the raid are in the log when its failing

d) what linux distribution (and version) are you using?
The server is RH 8.0. The kernel is a 3rd party "meant for RH 8" one,
2.4.20-28_36.rh8.0.atsmp. We've had alot of issues with drivers for the
QLA2100 FC host adapter and XFS, so I'm somewhat hesitant to try different
kernels. Last one we tried was a 2.4.31 snapshot from SGI's cvs (supposed
to have the latest/greatest XFS driver, and I'd added the latest QLA2100
driver module from qlogic to it). In that kernel, NFS export of XFS was
broken. Clients could mount, but not actually read files.
It's quite probable, that before the following reboot, md1 was hdc1
and hde1.
