I setup a 2TB 10 disk RAID 6 IDE array. Works great. But when I reboot, mdadm emails me about a "DeviceDisappeared /dev/md3 Wrong-Level" event. I can't find anything in the /var/log/messages related to this. The RAID 6 array is brought up manually on boot from the standard FC3 mdadm -A -s call in /etc/rc.sysinit. My mdadm.conf looks like: DEVICE partitions ARRAY /dev/md3 UUID=dda56415:b7c1cb8e:bf0a1553:5cc3ad55 I also use separate RAID1 arrays for boot, root and swap. Those arrays are on 2 bigger disks shared with the RAID 6 array. I can't tell if the system is emailing me when it's shutting down or when it's coming back up, but I believe based on the time of the email it's the latter. Should I be worried about this DeviceDisappeared error? Everything seems ok. What does it mean? How do I fix it?
